Existing holding definition

Hi
for the purpose of erecting a dwelling on a NSW rural small lot, i am trying to understand what makes an land an existing holding

can someone give an example to make it clear please?
assuming the relevant date was 11 April 1966, say if the land was subdivided in 1965 into 5 lots and all were under the same ownership on the 11th of April 1966, does that mean that for the current land to be an exiting holding,the 5 lots have to be owned by a single owner today? if one lot was sold separately after 1966 then it would not be an exiting holding anymore, is my understanding correct?
similarly if the owner sold one lot before 11th of April 1966 to a person who does not own any other adjoining lots, then that single sold lot would be an exiting holding today because it was owned by one owner since 1966 even if it was sold later after that date, i am right or wrong?
Thanks

 

What's the context? Under what Act?

Various Acts, local, state & federal will affect the response - eg Land Tax, CGT, subdivision, Real Property Act, compulsory acquisition, use, dual occupancy etc.

 

i see it under most councils LEP 4.2A (d)

Judging by that, you should seek specific advice from a town planner as there are several site specific issues which will need to be considered & addressed who whether you have building entitlements on each lot, whether they meet the minimum lot size or if they are considered a single lot for the purposes of the instrument.

 

i do not have a land, just wanted to understand the definition of an existing holding in general which is not specific to a certain council or land
