NUMBAT
HABITATS — PRESCRIBED BURNING PROGRAM
343. Hon TJORN SIBMA to the minister representing the
Minister for Environment:
I
refer to the tabling yesterday of an unsigned and undated document titled Operational
review of DON_100 Weinup prescribed burn —or the
review—which made no reference to the burn's impact on an
endangered numbat habitat.
(1) Is the
two-page document that was tabled the entire review or is it an extract from a larger
document?
(2) Who will be
responsible for implementing the review's recommended six follow-up
actions to ensure that future burns ''meet the stated objectives''
of their relevant burn plans?
(3) What specific time frame for
implementation applies to each of those six actions?
