I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
The budget allocation remains
consistent and the adjustment to the key effectiveness indicator reflects the
mathematical reality of an increase in the number of species and ecological
communities anticipated to be listed as critically endangered and endangered in
2020–21 relative to the number of recovery plans that can be prepared
within existing budget parameters.
