Following a comprehensive show cause process and extensive review, the NT Government has withdrawn Major Project Status for Quintis Limited’s Indian Sandalwood expansion, because the expansion in NT is not proceeding in the near future.

This decision is made in accordance with the Major Project Status Policy Framework, which sets out the process and requirements for Major Project Status. 

The Northern Territory Government awards Major Project Status to private sector initiated projects that are significant, complex and have strategic impact.

For the project proponent, the benefits of major project status include whole of government support, coordination and facilitation, assistance in identifying and mapping regulatory approvals, project case management and facilitation of engagement with the Australian Government through a central and single point of contact.
