AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question. (1)–(2) I am unable to table the prescribed fire plan for burn F407 as it remains a draft document and is yet to receive final management approval within the Department of Environment and Conservation. This approval is expected within the next week, and the Minister for Environment has advised that he will be happy to provide a copy to the honourable member at that time. (3) Following the Department of Environment and Conservation’s final approval of the prescribed fire plan, the burn will commence at the earliest opportunity when suitable weather conditions prevail.
