The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Amendment (Reconsiderations) Bill seeks to amend the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) to prevent the Environment Minister from applying the EPBC Act to actions in some circumstances. EDO does not support the passage of the Bill, as it would restrict the Minister from remaking decisions in certain circumstances – even where doing so would prevent environmental pollution, destruction, or the likely extinction of a species.
