You are not alone! While it is ultimately the responsibility of each local council to ensure its own compliance with the Land Use Activity Agreement (LUAA), there are people who can assist.
Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action
The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA) manages a large proportion of public land in the LUAA area.
DEECA will usually be the "decision maker" for leases, and for many kinds of licences and permits.
Contact DEECA through its online customer service page or via phone on 136 186.
