WEPA recently made a submission on the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2017 draft Regulations and Codes as well as the statement of intent for the draft Vegetation State Environment Planning Policy (SEPP).  The submission concentrated on the impact of the proposed changes on urban trees and bushland.  We also supported the submissions made by the Environmental Defenders Office of NSW and the Stand Up for Nature coalition dealing with state-wide and particularly rural impacts.
