Land Code: What is Development Law? ⚒️

The purpose of Development Law is to make sure all development on SC’IȺNEW̱ territory is done in a safe, well-planned manner. These decisions are in the hands of our Nation — not Indigenous Services Canada (ISC). 🧰 🤝🏽

Development Law allows us to:

📝 Deliver permits & approvals quickly
🏞️ Prevent development on protected SC’IȺNEW̱ lands

The Lands Office will work with you to get your permit done. ✍🏽
