RMLA representatives presented to the Environment Committee on the organisation’s submission to the Fast-track Approvals Bill on Thursday 6 June. During the presentation, Lauren Wallace and Kate Stubbing focused on key aspects of our submission: what (if any) changes can or should be made to the proposal to ensure that the instrument being considered will:

(a) be consistent with the general framework of existing laws and policies and legally sound;

(b) be practicable, effective and efficient;

(c) assist in promoting best practice; and

(d) produce high quality environmental outcomes.
