The High Court held there was no error of law: the Environment Court did not misapply legal principle in concluding coastal hazards fell within the broadly and reasonably interpreted notice of appeal; the Judge's comment on potentially calling evidence under s276 was an obiter observation and not central to the ruling; and the Environment Court had addressed prejudice and costs, so there was no failure to have regard to a relevant matter. The appeal was dismissed.
