163. Remapping of old-growth and high-conservation-value public forests: resumption of the adjourned debate (8 August 2019) of the question on the motion of Mr Field:

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) the Government is planning to allow logging in thousands of hectares of old-growth and high-conservation-value public forests on the North Coast that have been off limits for decades, (b) these forests are rare and important ecosystems which provide irreplaceable habitat for many threatened species, such as koalas, gliders, quolls, frogs and owls,

(c) they have been protected as part of the nationally agreed reserve system for decades and have been granted state significant heritage protection for their historical significance, including to Aboriginal people, aesthetic significance, research potential, rarity and valuable habitat,

(d) this process is being driven by a desire to access more timber, based on a Forestry Corporation calculation that new rules under the Coastal Integrated Forestry Operations Approvals (CIFOA) to protect koala habitat and threatened ecological communities could result in a small timber supply shortfall of up to 8,600 cubic metres per year,

(e) despite advice from the Natural Resources Commission (NRC) that this wood supply shortfall “represent[s] the worst case scenario and may never be realised”, the Premier requested the NRC consider remapping old growth forests and rainforests to meet this shortfall,

(f) a pilot study of 13 areas of state forest found that remapping could open up 78 per cent of protected old growth forest to logging, despite all sites having vitally important habitat,

(g) the Government has committed over $2 million to this remapping process, despite this cost far outweighing the $1.5 million value of buying back the contracts for the maximum claimed timber shortfall,

(h) the funding is being provided by the Government despite the NRC recommending that any remapping and rezoning should be paid for by Forestry Corporation as the beneficiary, and

(i) remapping on private land has already opened up over 29,000 hectares of previously protected old growth forests to logging in recent years. 7223 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(2) That this House agrees that remapping old growth forests:

(a) breaks the Government’s commitment to no erosion of environmental values under the new CIFOA,

(b) is based on timber supply impacts that are not verified and probably do not exist, and

(c) is a subsidy to logging which exceeds the value of the extra wood supply.

(3) That this House call on the Government to:

(a) end the remapping and rezoning of old-growth and rainforest on public and private land,

(b) ensure no areas of forest currently protected will be opened up to logging, and

(c) conserve native forests to protect biodiversity, store carbon and provide new tourism and recreational opportunities—Mrs Maclaren-Jones. (15 minutes)

Debate: 1 hour and 45 minutes remaining.

The Solicitor General expressed the general view that a statutory prohibition on disclosure of information will only be held to apply to disclosure to a Parliamentary committee if that is done expressly or by necessary implication.

I defer to the views of the Solicitor General. … I would only add that the principle applied by the Solicitor General - that legislation will be presumed not to diminish the “privileges” of Parliament or its committees, unless it does so expressly or by necessary implication - has been accepted in several Australian cases.

4. That notwithstanding the power of the House to order the production of State papers subject to statutory privacy or secrecy provisions, the documents returned to the House under this order of the House be redacted to remove information subject to the privacy and secrecy provisions of the Taxation Administration Act 1996."—Mr Buttigieg speaking.

(b) the Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning, the Honourable Sarah Mitchell MLC, to work with her federal counterpart to prevent the age inappropriate teaching of gender diversity material in New South Wales preschools and child care centres.

(Notice given 16 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 93)

1015. Mr Latham to move—

That this House:

(a) condemns the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment Secretary, Mr Jim Betts, for his insult to Indigenous people by persisting in paternalistic, virtue signalling gestures in New South Wales strategic planning documents, the modern equivalent of offering beads and blankets,

(b) notes that the Draft Aerotropolis Precinct Plan, November 2020, facilitates the construction of an international airport, large housing estates, commercial, tourism and industrial zones, and new roads, rail lines and Metro stations, clearing away the vegetation and environment once occupied by Indigenous people,

(c) condemns Mr Betts for trying to dress up this huge urban development pavement, concreting and construction exercise as a “significant Connection to Country”, indeed, his false and misleading claim that the number one driver of the Aerotropolis development is Indigenous “Connecting to Country”,

(d) also condemns Mr Betts for placing Indigenous dot-patterns on the Aerotropolis plan, as if this pathetically-shallow tokenism somehow makes the document Indigenous,

(e) urges the Minister for Planning and Public Spaces, , MP, to get rid of Mr Betts for his insults to Indigenous Australians and at least, recognise the truth, the full truth of what something like the Aerotropolis is doing to the vegetation and environment once occupied by the Indigenous peoples of Western Sydney, and

7244 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(f) also notes that the Indigenous consultation for the Aerotropolis plan involved just 132 people, or 0.22 per cent of Western Sydney’s Indigenous population, and the 132 were said to be suffering “consultation fatigue”, again demonstrating the tokenism and shallowness of the Jim Betts approach.

(Notice given 16 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 93)

1016. Mr Latham to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) when he released the Government's Net Zero Emissions by 2050 policy in March 2020, the Minister for Energy and Environment, Matt Kean MP, could only identify 240 new jobs per annum, compared to the 75,000 coal-reliant jobs in the Hunter Valley his policy puts at risk,

(b) Minister Kean also said on the parliamentary record that his Department had modelled the Net Zero policy and had “used modelling by the Commonwealth Government for this purpose”, the only Commonwealth modelling available to them was the 2019 CSIRO Australian National Output Technical Report.

(c) the 2019 CSIRO report states: (i) a carbon price of $200 per tonne is needed to get to Net Zero 2050, that is, eight times higher than Julia Gillard’s carbon tax, (ii) by 2050 every person in New South Wales will be $25,000 worse off under Net Zero Emissions, compared to a no-policy-change outcome,

(d) when the Arden Government in New Zealand modelled its Net Zero 2050 policy, with an exemption for agriculture, it identified a 16 per cent sacrifice in GDP growth and household income, with the equivalent Australian figure at 30 to 40 per cent,

(e) the Deputy Premier, John Barilaro MP, has said that a Net Zero 2050 policy with no exemptions will destroy agriculture and mining in our State,

(f) Minister Kean has said he supports a Federal Government exemption for agriculture, even though his own 2050 policy includes agriculture, and

(g) when the Australian Workers Union and the Mining and Energy Division of the CFMMEU briefed Federal Labor MPs in October 2020, they said that coal is needed in Australia for decades to come and gas-power permanently for manufacturing jobs, they said that a ‘hard switch’ to renewable energy in Australia puts at risk 250,000 resource sector jobs and over 3 million manufacturing and supply chain jobs, including 172,000 directly in Sydney.

(2) That this House calls on the Government to:

(a) publicly release the economic modelling for the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 policy, and

(b) exempt all trade-exposed industries in New South Wales from the policy, including agriculture, mining and manufacturing.

(Notice given 17 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 94)

1051. Mr Banasiak to move—

That this House notes that:

(a) prior to the implementation of the NSW Rock Fishing Safety Act 2016 around 400,000 NSW Recreational Fishing Licence fees from the Saltwater Fishing Trust fund have been allocated to collaborative Rock Fishing Safety, education and Awareness programs,

(b) these programs targeted how to safely fish from New South Wales coastal rock platforms; improving a fishers knowledge; understanding coastal weather patterns; what is appropriate safety apparel when fishing on high-risk rock fishing platforms including life jackets, wetsuits and appropriate footwear; and other key safe fishing devices that assist rock fishers in fishing safely,

(c) these collaborative rock fishing education packages took into consideration the expertise, experience and knowledge of many experienced rock fishers from multiple New South Wales recreational fishing associations,

(d) these structured educational programs promoted safe fishing and basic weather safety to those that participated,

(e) the “Don’t Put Your Life on the Line!” campaign was so successful other Australian states and some European countries adopted it as best practice,

(f) despite the success of these campaigns the introduction of the Rock Fishing Safety Act 2016 by the Government contradicted the best practice collaborative education package and removed any 7248 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

reference to appropriate footwear or other safe rock fishing apparel like wetsuits and other floatation apparel,

(g) the Government ignored best advice to practically investigate, assess and test various types of life jackets that are recommended under the Rock Fishing Safety Act 2016 and listed as the Australian standard,

(h) in 2018, under the then Minister for Police and Emergency Services, the Honourable , the Rock Fishing Safety Act 2016 was made an opt-in or opt-out decision for coastal councils,

(i) many councils chose to opt-out, leaving high-risk rock fishing locations with minimal safety signage and no enforcement controls including the Wollongong City council where Hill 60 is located,

(j) in the last month, five rock fishers have been swept off the rocks and to their deaths at Hill 60 in the Wollongong City council LGA,

(k) in 2017-18 the Rock Fishing Safety Awareness Program aimed at the non-English speaking CALD communities was significantly disrupted by the then Police and Emergency Services Minister Troy Grant by transferring responsibilities and resourcing to the then NSW DPI and Fisheries Minister, the Honourable , thus absolving the Police and Justice Department of any responsibilities,

(l) further to this disruption, in April 2019 the Government removed the Rock Fishing Safety Act from the DPI and Fisheries portfolio under the Honourable Adam Marshall and reinstated it into the care and control of the current Minister for Police and Emergency Services, the Honourable David Elliott along with the Minister for Local Government, the Honourable Shelly Hancock,

(m) by removing and reinstating the Rock Fishing Safety Act across three portfolios and four ministers; the safety of New South Wales rock fishers has been put at further risk, and no responsibility has been taken by the Government to properly resource, fund or raise awareness for rock fishing safety,

(n) no member of the Government can provide concise or accurate answers as to how much money has been collected through fines issued for rock fishing violations and whether that money has been returned to the NSW Recreational Fishing Trust fund to assist in further campaigns for rock fishing safety programs,

(o) fishing associations like the Recreational Fishing Alliance of NSW and the Australian National Sports Fishing Associations NSW Branch spend considerable time and funds to maintain rock fishing platforms and provide safety for public recreational fishers,

(p) one such initiative by these groups, the ANSA NSW Angel Rings (orange life buoys placed on stainless steel posts at known high-risk rock fishing spots), have successfully saved the lives of nearly 100 rock fishers since 1994,

(q) a group of dedicated fishers and community volunteers continue to oversee the Angel ring network,

(r) the Governments Rock Fishing Safety Act 2016 is an abject failure and has failed to protect the public and the New South Wales rock fishing community, particularly those from non-English speaking CALD communities, and

(s) the Rock Fishing Safety Act 2016 needs to be formerly amended to recognise appropriate footwear and that wetsuits can act as safe fishing and buoyancy apparel and still allow a person to swim safely.

(Notice given 17 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 94)

1052. Rock Fishing Safety Amendment Bill 2021: resumption of the adjourned debate of the question on the motion of Mr Banasiak: That this bill be now read a second time (5 calendar days from 9 June 2021)—Mr Mallard (20 minutes) 7249 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

1057. Mrs Maclaren-Jones to move—

(1) That this House commends the NSW Government for accelerating the $750 million redevelopment of Royal Prince Alfred Hospital,

(3) That this House notes that this project is expected to create thousands of jobs and will make an important contribution to the State’s COVID-19 Recovery Plan, and

(4) That this House notes the NSW Government began the transformation of this site with the Professor Marie Bashir Centre, which opened in 2014.

(Notice given 17 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 94)

1059. Mr Latham to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) in 2020 the NSW Government paid $302,000 (excluding GST) to Mr Cameron Hepburn of Aurora Energy Research for the modelling of Minister Kean’s Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap,

(b) in October 2020 Mr Hepburn held 275,000 shares in Aurora Energy Research, a company he founded,

(c) Mr Hepburn also has financial links to Mr Michael Photios' and Ian Hancock's Blueprint Institute (as a member of its Strategic Council and in doing research work on Institute projects), a clear conflict of interest given the substantial lobbying and business interests Mr Photios and Mr Hancock hold in renewable energy and their influence within the New South Wales Liberals moderates faction, of which the Honourable Matt Kean MP, Minister for Energy and Environment, is a prominent member and political beneficiary,

(d) Mr Photios and Mr Hancock own and manage the PremierState and PremierNational lobbying firms, with multiple renewable energy corporate clients, and also Clean Energy Strategies, a company dealing financially in Power Purchasing Agreements for renewable energy, 7250 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(e) in his modelling for the Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap, Mr Hepburn used a false assumption of 1 Gigawatt rooftop solar generation in NSW, 2.5GW below the actual level, meaning he over-estimated by 2.5GW the amount of utility solar and wind farm power needed in New South Wales, a financial bonanza for the Photios/Hancock corporate interests,

(f) Minister Kean selected someone from the Blueprint Institute to do the modelling for his New South Wales electricity policy that produced an outcome financially beneficial to those who own and run the Blueprint Institute, an abuse of office and evidence of corrupt conduct,

(g) in answer to Legislative Council Question on Notice 3486, Minister Kean stated that Mr Hancock’s sister, Ms Ava Hancock, works as his Policy Director for Energy and has declared a conflict of interest in relation to her brother’s renewable energy holdings, yet Minister Kean has allowed this conflict to become a permanent part of his ministerial office,

(h) Ms Hancock would have been part of the decision to select Cameron Hepburn from her brother’s Blueprint Institute to undertake the economic modelling that now underpins huge financial benefits for her brother, and

(i) this energy policy-making cartel is riven with conflicts of interest, abuses of office and evidence of corrupt conduct that should be investigated by the Independent Commission Against Corruption.

(2) That, under section 73 of the Independent Commission Against Corruption Act 1988 this House refers to the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) for investigation and report:

(a) the circumstances under which Mr Cameron Hepburn, Aurora Energy Research was commissioned by the Government to undertake the modelling for the New South Wales Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap,

(b) any financial, commercial or other links between Aurora Energy Research and the Blueprint Institute,

(c) any personal or other relationships between the Office of the Honourable Matt Kean MP, Minister for Energy and Environment, and the Aurora Energy Research and the Blueprint Institute,

(d) the methodology used in Mr Hepburn's modelling for the New South Wales Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap, and

(e) any related matters the Commissioner deems necessary.

(3) A message be sent to the Legislative Assembly informing it that the Legislative Council has this day agreed to the resolution and, pursuant to section 73 of the Independent Commission Against Corruption Act 1988, requests the Legislative Assembly to pass a similar resolution.

(4) That in the event that the Legislative Assembly does not pass a similar resolution and inform the Legislative Council within two sitting days of receipt of a message from the Legislative Council, the Clerk is to communicate the resolution of the House to the Independent Commission Against Corruption.

7251 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

1061. Ms Hurst to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) cellular agriculture, sometimes referred to as ‘slaughter-free agriculture’, involves the production of animal products, such as meat and dairy, from cell-cultures,

(b) experts agree that cellular agriculture has the potential to transform the way food is produced globally, and eliminate much of the harm caused by the animal agribusiness industry to animals, the environment and human health,

(c) in January 2021, it was announced that the New South Wales-based company VOW Foods raised $6,000,000 USD to develop their cutting-edge cellular meat products, and

(d) with a growing demand for alternative proteins, particularly in Asia, Australian companies are well-placed to profit and become leaders in this emerging industry—but only if they have proper financial and regulatory support from the Government.

(2) That this House calls on the Government to provide greater support to cellular agriculture companies in Australia.

(Notice given 17 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 94)

1062. Mr Shoebridge to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) the Government has proposed a bill to set aside settlement agreements for past child abuse,

(b) the bill seeks to allow New South Wales courts to set aside historical settlement agreements for child abuse,

(c) the power imbalance between institutions and victims means many past settlements were effectively coercion rather than a fair response to the harm done, and

(d) historically survivors of child sexual abuse almost always entered into unfair settlements under unfair laws and with deeply inappropriate moral pressure from the organisations that abused them.

(2) That this House notes with concern that::

(a) the current draft of the Civil Liability Amendment (Child Abuse Settlement) Bill 2020 does not deliver on the Attorney General’s promise to allow unfair settlements to be set aside so that victims of historic child sexual abuse can achieve justice, and

(b) a large number of organisations have made submissions noting their concerns with the proposed model.

(3) That this House calls on the Attorney General, the Honourable MP, to ensure the final model proposed to the Parliament respects and supports victims and survivors by delivering a fair and workable pathway to justice.

(Notice given 17 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 94)

7252 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(Notice given 17 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 94)

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) nearly one in five young people in the Hunter region are unemployed, and

(b) the Hunter community was not consulted about the recent decision to sell the site of Scone TAFE and that it found out about the sale from the real estate listing.

(2) That this House calls on the Government to reconsider the sale of the site of Scone TAFE.

1069. Mr Graham to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) some residents of Sydney are paying $6,000 a year in tolls,

(b) this Government has imposed a new toll on the old M5 East flooding local suburbs with traffic, and

(c) while tolls are increasing 4 per cent a year, wages are stagnant.

(2) That this House calls for an inquiry into:

(a) the cost of tolls for New South Wales drivers,

(b) the prospects for toll relief, and.

(c) the extreme secrecy which currently governs toll road contracts.

(Notice given 18 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 95)

1071. Mr Shoebridge to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) on 7 February 2021, I joined local forest campaigners and visited 11 of the 18 compartments surrounding Brooman and Shallow Crossing State Forests which are currently slated for logging,

(b) from logging trucks damaging the roads to continued breaches of logging rules, it is clear this industry has lost its social license, and

(c) the spread of fire over the last fire season demonstrates how recently-logged forests are more fire-prone, while non-logged forests with intact canopy and moist understory provide natural barriers to fire. 7253 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(2) That this House commends the activists and citizen scientists who are working hard to protect what they can in these forests, including by marking out trees that are supposed to be protected under the current rules.

(3) That this House affirms that:

(a) everything changed after the fires,

(b) the forests on the South Coast have enormous potential, not as woodchips but as places for tourism, local engagement and recreation,

(c) with modest investment we could create networks of walking and mountain bike trails, places to camp, sensitive eco-tourism and kayak trails, while also protecting these forests, and

(d) protecting these forests from logging doesn’t mean locking them up, it can mean opening them up in a way that has never been possible before, while delivering enormous environmental and sustainability benefits.

(4) That this House calls on the Government to make a plan for the future of these forests, with an end to native forest logging and a real plan for the future of the workers in and around these forests.

(Notice given 18 February 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 95)

1080. Ms Hurst to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) it is a shocking reality that, in New South Wales, there have been no animal bans imposed on perpetrators as a result of a conviction of bestiality,

(b) the lack of animal bans for bestiality means that animals in our community are not being protected from potential sexual abuse, and

(c) the community does not want to see individuals convicted of sexually abusing animals having any future interaction with animals.

(2) That this House calls on the Government to introduce mandatory, lifetime restrictions on owning or working with animals for individuals convicted of bestiality.

(Notice given 16 March 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 96)

1081. Ms Hurst to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) Buddy is a beagle cross kelpie who was used in medical experimentation for the first nine years of his life, 7255 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(b) most Australians would be horrified to discover that dogs and cats are being experimented on, yet statistics released by the Government show that over 5,000 dogs and cats were used for research in 2019,

(c) Buddy is one of the very few survivors of medical experimentation to ever be released, with the Government reporting that only 30 dogs were rehomed from research facilities in the past year,

(d) in 2018, the former Minister for Agriculture promised to develop mandatory regulations for the rehoming of cats and dogs used in research – but over two years later, this has still not happened, and

(e) even though taxpayer money is used to fund the continued breeding and use of animals like Buddy in experimentation, the Government refuses to say exactly how much money is given to this industry, and there is no transparency about the types of experiments taxpayers are funding.

(2) That this House calls on the Government to enact ‘Buddy’s Law’, which will give companion animals the ‘Right to Release’ from medical experimentation facilities, and end the hidden use of taxpayer dollars on animal research.

The children knew what they could see and hear but could not reconcile themselves with the notion that it was wrong to see boys and girls as different. Watching a six-year-old have a panic attack over the use of gender identifying language is disturbing”,

(1) That this House notes that Joe Biden’s climate summit on 22 and 23 April 2021 saw the United States’ pledge to reduce its emissions by 50-52 per cent by 2030 compared to 2005 levels.

(2) That this House notes that the Climate Council recently released its report "Aim high, go fast: why emissions need to plummet this decade" which states that:

(a) evidence strongly suggests that to avoid exceeding warming of 1.5 degrees celsius by 2030, significant progress towards reducing emissions must be made this decade,

(b) if temperature increases reach 2 degrees celsius, Australia will lose up to 99 per cent of coral reefs, 16 per cent of plant species and 8 per cent of vertebrate species,

(c) the world achieving net zero by 2050 is at least a decade too late and would see temperatures increase beyond 1.5 degrees celsius, which would significantly increase the risk of triggering abrupt, dangerous and irreversible changes to the climate system, and

(d) Australia must reduce emissions by 75 per cent by 2030 and achieve net zero emissions by 2035 given our vast renewable resources and high vulnerability to increasingly extreme weather.

(3) That this House declares a climate emergency and calls on the Government to lay out a plan for the rapid decarbonisation of our economy and limit global temperature increase to below 1.5 degrees celsius.

(3) That this House notes that:

(a) the proposed enlargement of the Wyangala Dam by 650 gigalitres will destroy a significant amount of the habitat of migratory species around the Lachlan River Basin, 7270 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(b) the mismanagement of the Menindee Lakes water system by the Government has led to the degradation of migratory bird habitats,

(c) the proposed re-regulating weir to be constructed on the Macquarie River will decrease water flow to the Macquarie Marshes which is an important habitat for migratory birds, and

(d) the Government’s mismanagement of water has deprived floodplains and wetlands along the Murray-Darling Basin of adequate water, preventing the recovery and regrowth of migratory bird habitat.

(4) That this House calls on the Government to prioritise the protection of wetlands and honour our international agreements to protect migratory bird species.

1197. Mr Latham to move—

(1) That this House notes and supports the conclusions of the Reserve Bank of Australia’s May Statement on Monetary Policy that:

7274 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

1207. Ms Hurst to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) chicken flesh sold in supermarkets is regularly contaminated with faeces,

(b) a 2015 investigation found that 45 per cent of chicken flesh sold in Australian supermarkets tested positive for faecal contamination, as evidenced by the presence of E.coli, a bacterium found in chicken faeces,

(c) faeces regularly taint chicken flesh because of the unhygienic manner in which chickens are killed and processed for human consumption, which includes "eviscerating" the chickens to remove their internal organs, creating a risk of contamination,

(d) the slaughtered bodies are then put into a giant ice slurry, which can artificially increase their weight due to water absorption, allowing the flesh to be sold at a higher price, but can also lead to cross-contamination as the chicken flesh absorbs faecal matter in the water,

(e) this faecal matter is then consumed by anyone who eats chicken flesh, and

(f) protecting consumers from eating faeces should be a priority, and this can be achieved with greater transparency.

(2) That this House calls on the Government to introduce mandatory consumer warning labels on all chicken flesh that state "Warning: May Contain Faeces".

(Notice given 13 May 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 105)

1208. Ms Hurst to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) on 18 March 2021, the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Amendment Bill 2021 passed the Legislative Council,

(b) this bill will substantially increase penalties for animal cruelty offences, which is critical given that NSW currently has the lowest penalties for animal abuse in the country,

(c) this bill, as amended by the Legislative Council, will also introduce mandatory bans on caring or working with animals for anyone convicted of bestiality,

(d) since 18 March 2021, the Government has failed to bring this bill back before the Legislative Assembly for a vote, despite cross-party support for the legislation,

(e) this bill is urgent because, until it passes, people charged with committing animal cruelty will continue to face weak maximum penalties, and individuals convicted of bestiality will still be allowed to care for and work with animals,

(f) it is unclear why the Government has failed to take action to pass their own bill into law, and update these pathetic, outdated penalties for animal abuse, and

(g) until this bill passes, cases brought before the courts have little chance of getting proper justice for animal abuse, and this failure falls directly on the shoulders of the Minister for Agriculture, the Hon Adam Marshall MP.

7275 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(2) That this House calls on the Government to immediately pass the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Amendment Bill 2021 through the Legislative Assembly.

(Notice given 13 May 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 105)

1209. Mr Field to move—

(1) That this House notes:

(a) the announcement by the Natural Resources Access Regulator yesterday that they have commenced three prosecutions, including two in the Land and Environment Court, for alleged breaches of the Water Management Act 2000,

(b) the alleged breaches include: (i) 43 charges against a Moree irrigation company for taking 1800 ML of water in excess of licence allocations during the period of the drought, constructing an unlawful dam, and taking water while metering equipment was not operating properly, (ii) charges against two Griffith-based water users for allegedly taking approximately 6000 ML of water in excess of licences and approvals, and (iii) charges against a company for constructing an unlawful bore in the Border Rivers region and against a landowner connected to the company for using the bore without approvals to capture and store water.

(c) the maximum penalties for the offences range from between $500,500 and $2,000,200, and

(d) one of these prosecutions represents the largest action brought by the regulator since it began operations.

(2) That this House notes that notwithstanding the prosecutions brought by the Regulator, under section 60G of the Water Management Act 2000 the Minister retains the authority to charge for water illegally taken if satisfied, on the balance of probabilities, that a person has taken water from a water source in contravention of Part 2 of the Act relating to water access licences, including by:

(a) imposing on the person a charge for water taken not exceeding 5 times the value of the water taken, and/or

(b) ordering that any water allocations credited or to be credited to the water allocation account for the licence be debited up to 5 times the quantity of the water so taken.

(3) That this House calls on the Minster to exercise her full powers under the Water Management Act 2000 to send a clear signal to the community and water licence holders that breaches of the Water Management Act 2000 will not be tolerated by this Government and that water taken without a licence will be required to be returned to the rivers.

(c) animals and ecosystems are not simply viewed as resources for humans to use, but as living entities with rights of their own. 7276 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(2) That this House notes that the Blue Mountains City Council follows in the footsteps of:

(a) Ecuador which in 2008 became the first nation to enshrine the Rights of Nature in its constitution,

(b) New Zealand which in 2017 recognised the legal personhood of the Whanganui River, and

(c) India in 2017 which granted legal personhood to the Ganges and its main tributary the Yamuna.

(3) That this House calls upon the Government to adopt the “Rights of Nature” foundational principle for application in all government decision-making.

(Notice given 13 May 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 105)

1211. Mr Pearson to move—

(1) That this this House notes the United Nations Environment Programme Report on the Global Methane Assessment: Benefits and Costs of Mitigating Methane Emissions, which was published on 6 May 2021, found that:

(a) farmed animal methane emissions from manure and enteric fermentation present 32 per cent of global anthropogenic emissions,

(b) behavioural change measures and innovative policies are particularly important to prevent emissions from animal agriculture, given the limited potential to address the sector’s methane emissions through technological measures,

(c) the adoption of vegan or vegetarian diets could reduce methane emissions by 65–80 metric tonnes per year over the next few decades,

(d) the substitution of cultured meat for animal meat products could substantially reduce associated greenhouse gas emissions, and

(e) implementing structural and long-lasting changes in individual dietary intake will likely require strong intervention, mitigation and incentivisation by governments through innovative policies.

(2) That this House calls upon the Government to develop policies, provide funding and departmental resources to prepare the animal agriculture sector for transition to plant-based industries.

(Notice given 13 May 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 105)

(1) That this House notes that:

(a) Sunday 6 June 2021 marked 3 years since the NSW government passed a law that vetoed effective management of feral horses in Kosciuszko National Park,

(b) feral horse numbers in Kosciuszko National Park have skyrocketed from an estimated 1,500 to at least 14,000 in the last 20 years to December 2020,

(c) Kosciuszko National Park's unique and fragile alpine ecosystem never evolved to withstand hard-hooved animals such as feral horses, and

(d) due to the presence of these feral horses, rare habitats in the Park are being damaged and endangered animals like the Broad-Toothed Rat and the Northern Corroboree Frog are being outcompeted in their native habitat, putting them at further risk of extinction.

(2) That this House also notes that:

(a) the Federal Environment Minister Sussan Ley stated in December last year that feral horse numbers were "far too high and the damage to the landscape is too great and we have to do something about it",

(b) the NSW Energy and Environment Minister Matt Kean has stated that it is important to listen to the science, and that feral animals including horses were one of the biggest threats to national parks, and 7278 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(c) in Budget Estimates in March, the Deputy Premier John Barilaro said he supported quickly reducing Kosciuszko 's feral horse population by 11,000 horses or about 80 percent, and that some parts of Kosciuszko National Park should be 'horse-free'.

(3) That this House calls on the NSW Government to urgently repeal the Kosciuszko Wild Horse Heritage Bill 2018 and immediately act to effectively and humanely reduce the feral horse population in Kosciuszko National Park to sustainable numbers using methods supported by the best available science.

(Notice given 8 June 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 106)

(b) the role played by the board, CEO and members of Equestrian NSW (ENSW), Equestrian Australia and officials within the Office of Sport, in both the application for funding and the process for selection of the grant by the Office of Sport,

1275. Mr Latham to move—

(1) That this House:

(a) supports the Federal Minister for Education and Youth, the Hon Alan Tudge MP, in his statement of 13 June 2021 that Bruce Pascoe’s Dark Emu and Young Dark Emu should not be used in classrooms, and

(b) calls on the NSW Government to adopt the same position and policy.

(2) The House notes:

(a) the danger in our schools of teaching material to children which is not factual, especially in the history curriculum,

(b) the comprehensive critique of Dark Emu in the new book, 'Hunter-Gathers? The Dark Emu Debate’ by leading Australian anthropologist Professor Peter Sutton and archeologist Dr Keryn Walshe,

(c) the Sutton/Walshe assessment that Dark Emu is “littered with unsourced material, is poorly researched, distorts and exaggerates many points, selectively emphasises evidence to suit those opinions and ignores large bodies of information that do not support the author’s opinions. It is actually not, properly considered, a work of scholarship. Its success as a narrative has been achieved in spite of its failure as an account of fact.”,

(d) Professor Sutton’s view that Dark Emu does Aboriginal people a huge disservice by removing from the historical record an accurate depiction of the complexity and sophistication of their land use pre-1788—in Sutton’s words: Aboriginal people “had developed ways of managing from their landscape that went beyond just hunting and just gathering but did not involve gardening or farming. They were ecological agents who worked with the environment, rather than against it. They frequently used slow-burning fires to make their landscapes more liveable. On the other hand, they did not cut down bush to clear the land, plough and hoe the soil in preparation for planting, or then sow stored seed or tubers or rootstock in gardens or in fields.”, 7296 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(e) the absence in Aboriginal languages of words and phrases associated with farming, unlike Torres Strait Islanders who undertook farming and have languages to match,

(f) the historical record, confirmed by Sutton and Walshe, of an absence of permanent Aboriginal housing pre-1788, as Sutton writes, “The recurring pattern, all over Australia, was one of seasonal and other variation in lengths of stays in one place. No group is ever described, at the moment of colonisation, as living year-in, year-out, in one single place.", and

(g) the Sutton/Walshe critique is supported by Peter O’Brien’s 'Bitter Harvest' which also systematically dismantles Dark Emu’s claim to be a factual work of history.

(Notice given 22 June 2021—expires Notice Paper No. 109)

1276. Mr Farrway to move—

(1) That this House notes that:

(1) That this House notes:

(a) the resolution of the House of 12 May 2021 relating to an order for papers regarding jobs created by the COVID-19 Recovery Plan,

(c) on 19 May 2021 the Department of Premier and Cabinet sought a seven week extension, however as the COVID-19 Recovery Plan and jobs public announcement was made in or around June or July 2020 and accordingly the information requested should be easily available, a two week extension, to 16 June 2021, was agreed to.

(2) That this House further notes that on Wednesday 16 June 2021 a partial return was received, but the documents provided did not address the specifics of the order for papers regarding jobs created by the COVID-19 Recovery Plan.

(3) That this House expresses its concern that the return to the order indicates that either: 7297 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(a) the requested documents do not exist and therefore the COVID-19 Recovery Plan and jobs announcements were made in the absence of credible information, or

(b) the Government is refusing to comply with the order of the House.

(b) Mr Langker has been charged with two counts of stalking or intimidation with intent to cause fear of physical or mental harm, in relation to two interactions with the NSW Deputy Premier, the Hon John Barilaro MP, in the last few months,

(c) media reports suggest that the charges relate to two incidents including one at a Politics in the Pub event at Macquarie University in April where Mr Langker and FriendlyJordies Presenter Jordan Shanks (who was dressed as Luigi from Mario Brothers) approached the Deputy Premier and shouted, 'Why are you suing us' and the other on the day of the arrest where Mr Langker approached the Deputy Premier on Hospital Road, behind NSW Parliament, and asked him, 'Deputy Premier, why are you suing my boss?' before the Deputy Premier got into a car and was driven off,

(d) Mr Langker’s lawyer, Mr Mark Davis, has described his bail conditions as 'utterly extreme', prohibiting Mr Langker from possessing images or caricatures of Mr Barilaro, or commenting on his 'personal appearance or behaviour',

(e) the Deputy Premier is currently suing Mr Shanks for defamation and lodged a statement of claim in the Federal Court on 27 May 2021, 7305 Legislative Council Notice Paper No. 90—Wednesday 23 June 2021

(f) media have reported statements by lawyers for the Deputy Premier saying Mr Shanks defamed the Deputy Premier in a series of videos that had brought him into 'public disrepute, odium, ridicule and contempt',

(g) the Fixated Person’s Investigations Unit was established in 2017, in the wake of the Lindt Cafe siege and was created to monitor extremists and fixated persons who may not fall under Australia’s counter-terrorism laws but nonetheless pose a risk of serious violence,

(h) at the time of the announcement of the new unit, NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller referred to people who are 'obsessed about issues, ideals or individuals' and are 'plotting acts of violence' or 'capable of acts of terrorism',

(i) media reports have cited responses by the NSW Police Force indicating that the Fixated Persons Investigations Unit investigates 'fixated persons' which is defined as someone who has an obsessive preoccupation, pursued to an excessive or irrational degree with a public office holder or internationally protected person, or other persons nominated by the Commissioner of Police, or a cause influenced by an extreme ideology,

(j) Mr Langker previously held a press security pass to the NSW Parliament and has collaborated on media stories published by Michael West Media, and

(k) on 18 June 2021, the Hon Wes Fang MLC was quoted in the media saying Langker 'doesn't have journalistic credentials' and that Mr Barilaro was suffering 'unfair criticism' from 'what is effectively a Labor-supporting comedian'.

(2) That this House expresses its concern over the escalation of the public dispute involving the NSW Deputy Premier, Mr Shanks and Mr Langker.

(3) That this House further expresses its concern over the involvement of the Fixated Persons Investigations Unit in the investigation and arrest of Mr Langker, a person whose work includes journalistic endeavours and satire, and which raises questions about the potential politicisation of the NSW Police Force and has significant implications for freedom of speech in NSW.
