Foreshore and Dumping at Sea (Amendment) Bill 2009
Public bill · Government · Presented
The measure would divide foreshore responsibilities between the agriculture and environment ministers: fisheries, aquaculture and fishery harbours would remain with Agriculture, while ports, commercial developments, offshore energy, natural-resource extraction, waste and water quality would move to Environment. It would require greater consultation, public notification and publication of decisions, allow fees for applications, and transfer responsibility for dumping-at-sea permits, enforcement and prosecutions to the Environmental Protection Agency, with the agency consulting Agriculture on relevant permits.
