Review of the National Biodiversity Strategy
Background
In 2009 the Natural Resource Management Ministerial Council , on behalf of all state and territory governments and the Australian Government, invited public comments on the draft Australia's Biodiversity Conservation Strategy 2010-2020.
The consultation draft of Australia's Biodiversity Conservation Strategy (consultation draft) was developed collaboratively by all state and territory governments and the Australian Government, with advice from the CSIRO and the Bureau of Meteorology.
The consultation draft was made available for public comment and a range of public submissions were received. The feedback was used to revise the Strategy.
