- High Court
The court found WDC's s92 request improperly sought to recast the application by requiring a through road connection (not information relating to the lodged application); treating the applicant's refusal to supply that recast plan as a s92 refusal and invoking s95C to publicly notify was unlawful; the High Court had jurisdiction to grant declaratory relief in respect of pre‑decision conduct and the matter was not moot; declarations were granted in favour of Reuters.
