EPBC Act Review | Final Report Released
On Thursday 28 January, the Australian Government released Prof. Graeme Samuel’s Final Report of the Independent Review of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act).
Over the course of this review, the EIANZ has been advocating strongly on behalf of its members in a bid to help shape this key piece of Australian environmental legislation. We welcome the report’s call for significant reform of the EPBC Act and the establishment of National Environmental Standards.
The EIANZ Board is currently reviewing the report findings and preparing a detailed response on behalf of the Institute.
We acknowledge and value the rights and interests of Indigenous Peoples in the protection and management of environmental values through their involvement in decisions and processes, and the application of traditional Indigenous knowledge.
