The paper introduces a new assessment model for ResCode - Victoria’s residential design and development rules.


The new model will make development requirements clearer and decision-making more consistent across Victoria. It proposes to replace the ResCode assessment requirements with the new Performance Assessment Module (PAM).

No changes to the ResCode standards and third-party notice and appeal rights are proposed.

Public consultation on the discussion paper is open until 17 December 2021.
