The Committee provided its advice on the Robertson Rainforest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion ecological community to the Minister in 2019. The Committee recommended that: o the ecological community merits listing as Critically Endangered; and o a recovery plan is not required for the ecological community at this time. 4. A draft conservation advice for this ecological community was made available for expert and public comment for a minimum of 30 business days. The Committee and Minister had regard to all public and expert comment that is relevant to the consideration of the ecological community for listing. 5. In 2019 the Minister accepted the Committee’s advice, adopted this document as the approved conservation advice and agreed no recovery plan is required at this time. The Minister amended the list of threatened ecological communities under section 184 of the EPBC Act to include Robertson Rainforest in the Sydney Basin Bioregion ecological community in the critically endangered category. 6. At the time of this advice, this ecological community was also listed as threatened under the New South Wales Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016.
