    According to this recent NCAT case shutters require a special resolution

    https://www.caselaw.nsw.gov.au/decision/593787fbe4b074a7c6e165d3

    I totally disagree. That is a highly selective reading of that case ruling and if you look at Item 12, it includes the wording of the act which lists non-major renovation with the phrase “not limited to …”.

    In other words, just because internal shutters aren’t listed it doesn’t mean they are not allowed.

     

    I was reading item 19 shutters. 

    … and as they change the external appearance of the lot, they are excluded from the definition of cosmetic work. They do  not fall within the definition of minor work. They accordingly require a special resolution, and should be included in the resolution of work for which consent is now sought.
