The petition of residents of the State of Queensland draws to the attention of the House inequalities regarding the protection of urban and non-urban native vegetation, contained in the Integrated Planning Act 1997.
Your petitioners therefore request the House to revise the Integrated Planning Act 1997, currently under Review, to ensure that the outcomes will include the protection that is currently provided for native vegetation by the Vegetation Management Act 1999 being extended to apply to urban as well as non-urban native vegetation across of Queensland regardless of whether the vegetation is in the South East or elsewhere in the State.
