Following is an email sent to me from Robert Brown in regards to my enquirey about getting prospectors & 4WDers into National Parks.
Please respond ASAP or we may find that ALL public land has been made a National Park or something just as silly. Regardless of what we think of the kindly gentleman - he was able to get shooters into National Parks. That's something we as prospectors can't do, as yet. However, Robert Brown MLC looks like our best hope. Remember, we only have until the 3rd August to get our submissions in. Please pass the word.
JA.

Subject: NSW Public Land Management Inquiry - have your say
Hi folks,
this Upper House Committee Inquiry, of which I am Chairman, will take submissions from
all stakeholders and members of the Public, up until 3rd August. That is only one week away.
Submissions to the Inquiry have been a little light-on to date - particularly given the huge amount of
emails I have received over the years concerning the management of Public Land in NSW
(National Parks;State Forests: Crown Land; Council reserves etc.)
I would expect therefore to have seen submissions from farmers, beekeepers, fishers, foresters,
fossickers, off-road bikers and 4WDers, Local Government....the list goes on.
Please spread the word as far as you can, and encourage people to HAVE THEIR SAY.
Details of the Inquiry, can be found at this website......
http://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/prod/parlment/committee.nsf/0/18B4C6B001E0D367CA2579E9000215C2
Simply click on the website, and follow the instructions for making a submission. The site also contains details of
where and when we will be holding Public Hearings In the Southern Riverina, the North West, New England, North Coast and Sydney.
We want to hear your views, complaints, accolades, and most importantly, your suggestions on how
Public Land Management can be improved in NSW .
Have a look at the terms of reference attached below.
Is your access to Public Land less than acceptable ( eg., access to beaches or impoundments for fishing; access to public land for vehicular recreation; access to public land for horse-riding)?
Are you a neighbour to a Public Land Estate? Do you believe the Public Land Managers are "responsible" neighbours?
Is your livelihood linked to Public Land ( eg., forestry; beekeeping; tourism; grazing)?
Do you have a view on the efficiency and competence of Public Land Managers in NSW?
Do you have any views on the overall "organisation" or "coordination" of PL Management in NSW across the various agencies ( Catchment Management Authorities/NPWS/State Forests/ Dept. Lands/LHPAs/Local Government/Public Utilities)?
Your submissions don't have to be complicated, simply write to The Committee and offer your ideas and suggestions. If you wish
to appear at one of the Public Hearings, please make that request at the conclusion of your submission.
Regards,
Robert Brown
