I refer to the Minister's advice of 19 June 2012 regarding Euro population management (question on notice No. 5569, answers (2)-(4)), and I ask —
In relation to meeting the requirements of the Commonwealth Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities, is the Department of Environment and Conservation still meeting the scientific requirements of the Commonwealth

by not conducting ground surveys for Euros?

As euros are not commercially harvested in Western Australia and there are no exports of euro products, there are no requirements under the
Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999
for monitoring euro populations.
