        (b)     a panel has recommended the grant of a permit under this Division and section 96F has been complied with; or

        (c)     as a result of changes made to an amendment under Part 3, the planning authority considers it appropriate that a permit be granted under this Division for any purpose for which the planning scheme as amended by the proposed amendment would require a permit to be obtained.

    (2)     A planning authority may only make a determination under subsection (1) if it has adopted the amendment or the part of the amendment to which the permit applies.

    (3)     If an amendment or the part of the amendment to which the permit applies lapses under Part 3, the permit application also lapses.

    (4)     If a planning authority determines to refuse to recommend to the Minister that a permit be granted under this Division for which an application has been made, the planning authority must notify the applicant in writing of the determination and the reasons for the determination.
