SENSITIVE SITES MAP
973. Hon DIANE EVERS to the Minister for Agriculture and Food:
I refer to the Department of Primary
Industries and Regional Development's sensitive sites map, which is
designed to assist both sensitive agricultural enterprises and nearby
landholders to prepare risk assessment and mitigation plans for their activities
to ensure that sensitive sites are protected.
(1) Given that
the sensitive sites map was last updated in 2016 and registration for the 2017–18
map is now closed, when will the government update the map?
(2) Given the
need to support farmers making decisions in real time, will the government
improve its data collection and mapping processes to ensure that up-to-date
information is available?
