licence, permit or authority.

Replacing 2 or more leases etc. with a single lease etc.
 (2A) If a single lease, licence, permit or authority is granted in place of, respectively, 2 or more leases, licences, permits or authorities (the original leases etc.), then:
 (a) for the purpose of subsection (1), the single grant is taken to be a renewal of the original leases etc.; and
 (b) paragraphs (1)(b) to (e) apply as if a reference in those paragraphs to the original lease etc. were a reference to the original leases etc.

Features that do not prevent a lease etc. from being a renewal
 (3) The features listed in subsection (4) do not prevent:
 (a) an act from being the renewal, re‑grant, re‑making, or extension of the term, of a lease, licence, permit or authority (the old authority) for the purposes of subsection (1) (the renewed, re‑granted, re‑made or extended lease, licence, permit or authority being the new authority); or
 (b) 2 or more leases, licences, permits or authorities (each of which is a new authority) from being granted in place of a single lease, licence, permit or authority (the old authority) for the purposes of subsection (2).

Features
 (4) The features are as follows:
 (a) the new authority, or the new authorities together, cover a smaller area than the old authority;
 (b) the term of the new authority, or of any of the new authorities, is longer than the term of the old authority;
 (c) the new authority or any of the new authorities is a perpetual lease (other than a mining lease);
 (d) if the new authority or any of the new authorities is a non‑exclusive agricultural lease or a non‑exclusive pastoral lease—the new authority permits or requires the carrying on of an activity that the old authority did not permit or require and that consists of:
 (i) a primary production activity (see section 24GA); or
 (ii) another activity, on the area covered by the new authority or of any of the new authorities, that is associated with or incidental to a primary production activity, provided that, when the other activity is being carried on, the use of the majority of the area covered by the new authority, or the new authorities together, will be for primary production activities.
