History of SAADA

SAADA was previously published by the University of South Australia and was authored by two experts in the field of planning law and practice:

- John Roder AM, former chairman of the Planning Appeal Tribunal and District Court Judge; and

- Don Pitt, a former Commissioner of the Environment, Resources and Development Court and the Planning Appeal Tribunal.

The work ceased being updated in 2002, despite continued support from subscribers.  With a high level of interest remaining in the text, SAADA was acquired by Presidian in 2007.  The 2002 version is currently being comprehensively revised, updated, re-formatted and re-indexed in preparation for re-release in mid-2008.  The Environment, Resources and Development Court has contributed case summaries covering the period 2002 - 2007.
