📜 Iron Ore Agreements Legislation Amendment Bill 2024

Assented toLABill 18418 September 2024

This Bill amends several existing Iron Ore Agreements Acts in Western Australia, ratifying variation agreements with mining companies. It authorises the implementation of these agreements and clarifies their effect on other laws.

Impact

Mining companies operating under the specified Iron Ore Agreements will be directly affected, as the bill ratifies variations to those agreements. The State of Western Australia is also affected, as it is a party to the agreements. This matters because it updates the legal framework governing iron ore mining operations in WA.
