I refer to the draft indicative
management plans for the proposed south coast marine park.

minister please provide the dates after March 2023 on which he or his
ministerial office were provided with iterations of the draft IMPs for the
marine park, also specifying the agencies or parties that provided the drafts?

AnswerView source ↗

I
thank the member for some notice of the question. The following answer has been
provided by the Minister for Fisheries.
(1)–(2) Although
there has been ongoing dialogue between ministerial offices and agencies,
neither myself nor my office have been provided with final draft indicative
management plans or final draft zoning maps. I
expect to receive final draft IMPs and final draft zoning maps prior to their
release for public consultation as part of the concurrence process
required under the Conservation and Land Management Act 1984.
