This Question on Notice from Mr Adam Hort scrutinises a Section 91 Licence issued on April 7, 2026, focusing on its potential overlap with an environmental offset area and its impact on a specific plant species, Banksia sessilis, which is a criterion for a clearing permit (CPS 11036/1). It also questions the trigger for revegetation requirements and requests the tabling of the licence and related compatibility assessments.

(1) Does the area affected by the Section 91 Licence of 7 April 2026 fall within or overlap the offset area assessed under clearing permit CPS 11036/1?
(2) Did the Department identify, when considering the Section 91 Licence application, that Banksia sessilis is a named foraging-cover criterion species under CPS 11036/1, and if so, what assessment was made of the impact of the authorised removal on those criteria?
(3) What clearing activity triggers the CPS 11036/1 requirement that offset-area revegetation commence within 24 months of the commencement of clearing — the Canning Road works authorised under that permit, or any clearing within the Jorgensen Park offset area?
(4) Will the Minister table the Section 91 Licence of 7 April 2026 and any assessment of its compatibility with CPS 11036/1 and CPS 10801/1?
