The proposed Inner South Health Centre has been jointly declared by the Chief Minister, Andrew Barr MLA, and the Minister for Planning and Sustainable Development, Chris Steel MLA, as a Territory Priority Project (TPP) under section 218 of the Planning Act 2023 (the Act).
The TPP declaration has now commenced after being approved by the Legislative Assembly and publicly notified. Subsequent Development Applications (DAs) can only be submitted for the TPP after the declaration commences.
The proposed Inner South Health Centre (to be located on the corner of Throsby Crescent and Throsby Lane in Griffith) satisfies the criteria under section 218)(1) of the Act.
The proposed TPP Declaration for the Inner South Health Centre was open for public consultation from 7 October 2025 to 19 November 2025. Late comments were accepted until 10 December 2025.
This development proposal is also subject to a Draft Major Plan Amendment - Draft Major Plan Amendment (DPA-06).
Next steps
A DA for the development proposal can be submitted after the TPP declaration commences and after the relevant major plan amendment (Draft Major Plan Amendment 06 – Inner South Health Centre) commences and the changes take effect in the Territory Plan.
The decision on a DA for a TPP is made by the Planning Minister. A decision on a DA for a TPP is exempt from third party appeal in the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal (ACAT).
