24 February 2025 - Release 3.106

The CATS is an online system where you can submit, manage and track your code amendment.

In CATS you can perform the following tasks:

• submit a Proposal to Initiate
• respond to requests for information
• pay invoices
• track the code amendment
• complete and respond to actions (such as the requirement for engagement approval)
• submit and activate stages as the code amendment progresses (such as submitting for engagement to commence or submitting for determination).

CATS will be used for processing all new and existing code amendments.

The public code amendment register has been enhanced to connect with CATS and reflect the status of code amendments.

• The website register has improved search functionality by the LGA filter, and a new code amendment ID filter.
• The code amendment status bar has been enhanced and will show: Adopted (Implementation Pending), Altered and Adopted (Implementation Pending), Code Amendment Progressing, Declined (Determination), Declined (Initiation), Policy Live (dd/mm/yyyy), Withdrawn 

To view code amendments currently on consultation, use the show code amendments on consultation toggle in the search filter.

There are also additional tiles linking to the:

• Toolkit (Code Amendment Toolkit)
• Code Amendment Dashboard
• Link to Browse the Planning and Design Code
