(From Nature Conservation Council)
The pressure is mounting on the Baird Government over the 10/50 Vegetation Clearing Code of Practice (the Code) which is seeing thousands of trees cut down across Sydney and the state. Due to the public outcry the government has announced a review of the Code. Please see our submission guide to help you and your organisation to make a submission by November 14.
Thank you for your help in getting this far.
It is vital that there is an immediate moratorium on the application of the Code until the review is completed. Please consider adding this request to your submission.
Submissions are to be emailed to 10.50@rfs.nsw.gov.auby the 14 November 2014. Please copy your submission to Environment Minister, Rob Stokes (office@stokes.minister.nsw.gov.au) and Emergency Services Minister, Stuart Ayres (office@ayres.minister.nsw.gov.au).
Thank you for your support,
Karl Beckert
