Notice of change to Business and Industrial zone names

The state government has renamed ‘business and industrial zones’ to ‘employment zones’.

From 26 April 2023, a reference to a former Business or Industrial zone under an environmental planning instrument (other than a state environmental planning policy) should be taken to reference to a new Employment zone under the environmental planning instrument (other than a state environmental planning policy).

The previous and new zone names are provided in the table below.
