(a) The proposed final management plan will remain consistent with the 1999 State Government policy on coastal squatters' huts. That is, the existing occupants will have to enter into a lease arrangement with the Department of Environment and Conservation, which will expire six years from the gazettal of the plan. At the end of the six years they will be required to relinquish occupancy of the huts, and where necessary bear the cost of removal and rehabilitation.
The submissions to the draft management plan did not give sufficient reason to depart from Government policy or amend the actions, in this instance, in the proposed final management plan.
(b) The gazettal will occur after a final management plan has been approved by me. The Conservation Commission of WA expects to submit the proposed final management plan to me early in 2008.
