Land Clearing

[HARRIS & WESTRUP John & Jude <>]

Dear B-A's

All seems to have gone quiet on this topic recently but you all may not
be aware that Land Clearing legislation was proclaimed in Qld on the
15th of September (Olympic Opening Ceremony).  An astute piece of
political opportunism.  Hardly a boo about it in the papers and other
media as everyone was rapt up in the Olympics.

While the legislation is not as good as it could of been in regards to
its scope, it is still a major step forward for the only state without
such controls.

I will try to find out where information about the Act can be viewed and
let you all know.
