# 1.4 Review Development Approvals/Consents

![The fourth of eight steps in the Land and Development Rights Audit phase. ](/files/HrnLbGSWwVNkvQTv9ezE)

All existing development approvals and/or consents need to be reviewed in the context of the outcome of the [Land Audit](/primary-transfer-toolkit/land-legal-toolkit/land-and-planning-regularisation-toolkit/step-1-land-and-development-rights-audit/1.2-land-legal-constraints.md) undertaken thus far.&#x20;

### What then are the most common issues which then prohibit the opening of a Township Register?&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
This includes problems, omissions, impediments that so often render the development approvals and/or consents flawed
{% endhint %}

* The conditions of approval cannot be effected as these conditions do not accord with the underlying property(s) title deed conditions.
* The conditions of approval do not adequately address the constraints other than title deed conditions of the underlying property(s).&#x20;
* The are conflicting conditions of approval arising from the SPLUMA consent.
* The Approval/Consent issued do not accurately reflect/record the legal parameter(s) of the properties contained and/or affected by the POF.&#x20;
* The Conditions of Approval/Consents do not correctly record the title deed conditions that must be registered with the Certificate of Consolidated Title defining the **POF**.&#x20;
* Municipal Departments are not willing to sign off on existing/historical Planning Conditions due to issues such as encroachments into environmentally sensitive areas etc. (Ie: the actual position on the ground and the position provided for in historical planning conditions differ materially and can no longer be achieved).
