Every few years, the engineers toiling to supply energy to the world achieve advances that qualify as game changers. But often, the breakthroughs go unnoticed.

I would appreciate if anyone could let me know what the exact legislation is pertaining to specifically dry wall partitioning layouts being submitted to local council for approval.

Is there a "cut off" point as such that will determine whether you will have to submit plans to council for approval or not?
