minister’s response to recommendations, being made public, including what changes will be made to the strategy. There is a series of amendments coming up that seek to create that process. It seemed easier to speak to the group of them at this point and then we can just move through the rest.
Amendment agreed to.
MS LAWDER (Brindabella) (5.26): I move amendment No 3 circulated in my name [see schedule 4 at page 4285]. This amendment is to make the report publicly accessible no later than three months after the end of the program. It is in keeping with our desire to ensure public consultation takes place throughout all the processes of this act.
Amendment agreed to.
MR RATTENBURY (Molonglo) (5.27): I move amendment No 4 circulated in my name [see schedule 3 at page 4283]. This clause requires the minister to take any action considered appropriate, which may include changes to action plans to the legislation or the strategy.
Amendment agreed to.
MR RATTENBURY (Molonglo) (5.28): I move amendment No 5 circulated in my name [see schedule 3 at page 4283].
Amendment agreed to.
Clause 58, as amended, agreed to.
New clause 58A.
MR RATTENBURY (Molonglo) (5.28): I move amendment No 6 circulated in my name [see schedule 3 at page 4283]. It inserts a new clause 58A.
MR CORBELL (Molonglo—Attorney-General, Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Environment and Minister for Capital Metro) (5.28): Briefly, this amendment provides for public consultation on the review of a nature conservation strategy. This provides some additional flexibility in that the review of the strategy does not need to be accompanied by a new strategy. It means that consultation would occur during the review of the strategy and on a new strategy if one was needed. This is a sensible change. I note that it has been taken account of following discussions between me and Mr Rattenbury.
Proposed new clause 58A agreed to.
Clauses 59 to 105, by leave, taken together and agreed to.
Clause 106.
