The NFF’s 6 June 2014 Submission to the Senate Standing Committee on Environment and Communications inquiry into the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Amendment (Bilateral Implementation) Bill 2014 highlights that the NFF has long advocated for changes to the EPBC Act to reduce duplication between State and Commonwealth environmental legislation. The current Government has committed to establishing “one-stop shops” with the States and Territories in order to significantly streamline environmental approvals. This is reform that the NFF and its members welcome and support.
