At a high-level, NFF does not support the proposals outlined in the Discussion Paper. Reforms must be guided by the principles of efficiency, fairness, and supporting regional economic resilience. In our view, the proposals outlined lack balance, introduce additional complexity, fail to recognise and integrate with existing legislative frameworks governing Business-As-Usual (BAU) agricultural activity, and fall short in improving efficiencies in current agreement-making processes.
