D4/25 means the decision was released and a change was made to it from when the Plan Change was first proposed. The key is no brackets means a change has occurred. Changes that happen result from the submission and hearing process and that information is found on each Plan Change page on our website.
When a clause becomes operative the text is changed from red underlined font to black and the decision annotation is replaced by its operative date. C75 9/22 and Op 10/23 means that a new clause was introduced by Plan Change 75, that it was notified in September 2022 and became operative (i.e. having legal effect) in October 2023.
