On 31 March 2017, the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) approved an application from Lendlease Property Management (Australia) Pty Limited for an individual exemption from the requirement to hold a retailer authorisation under the National Energy Retail Law.
Background
On 16 December 2016, the AER accepted an application from Lendlease Property Management (Australia) Pty Limited for an individual exemption from the requirement to hold a retailer authorisation under the National Energy Retail Law. Submissions closed 30 January 2017.
Cancellation of Exemption
On 17 October 2025, the AER accepted an application from Lendlease Property Management (Australia) Pty Limited to cancel the individual exemption it was granted on 31 March 2017 for the sale of electricity at Macarthur Square Shopping Centre. Lendlease Property Management (Australia) Pty Limited requested the cancellation of the exemption on the grounds that it no longer owns or operates Macarthur Square Shopping Centre and does not sell electricity at 200 Gilchrist Avenue, Campbelltown NSW 2560.
The AER, in accordance with clause 20 of schedule 2 of the National Gas Law (as applied by section 8 of the National Energy Retail Law), has a general power to repeal any decisions that it is entitled to make.
The process to cancel an individual exemption is similar to the application process. When an application has been accepted it is open to submissions for a minimum 20 business day consultation period, after which time the AER will approve or refuse the application for cancellation.
Invitation for submissions
We are now seeking submissions from interested stakeholders on Lendlease Property Management (Australia) Pty Limited’s application to cancel the exemption by 14 November 2025.
