National Parks and Sand Mining
Paul Stephen Sattler OAM M.Nat.Res.; B.App.Sc.(Rur.Tech.) Paul has a lifetime of professional experience in nature conservation. He was the principal architect in doubling Queensland’s National Park estate in the 1990s whilst working with the Queensland National Parks and Wildlife Service (QNPWS). Paul initiated and guided the comprehensive description of Queensland’s bioregional ecosystems and the assessment of their status, a vital planning tool for conservation and natural resource management. He was directly involved in the development of a range of State and national conservation policies and has a particular interest in rangeland conservation and sustainable management. After leaving the QNPWS, Paul formed his own specialised eco-consultancy business and was principal author of the National Land and Water Resources Audit’s terrestrial biodiversity assessment of Australia, the first detailed assessment of biodiversity at a range of scales nationally. He grew up in a beekeeping family and learnt a practical appreciation of nature and is now once again, an apiarist. Having completed a degree in Applied Science (Rural Technology) in 1971 at the University of Queensland, Gatton College, he went on to gain a Masters degree in Natural Resources at the University of New England, Armidale. Paul has been awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia for his services to biodiversity conservation. Dedication To my daughters, Seola Anne and Melita Louise.

In addition much unpublished information was received from Mrs H.B. Gill, Messrs J.R. Ford, S.A. Parker, R.L. Pink, R.K. Carruthers, L. Neilsen, D. Howe, C.A.C. Cameron, Bro. Matthew Heron, Dr D.L. Serventy and the late W.E. Alexander. These data formed the basis of the List of Queensland birds (Stort 1973, Spec. Pubis West. Aust. Mus. No. 5). During the last decade the increase in our knowledge of Queensland birds has been such as to warrant a re-writing of the List. Much of this progress has been due to three things: (1) survey work by J.R. Ford, A. Gieensmith and N.C.H. Reid in central Queensland and southern Cape York Peninsula (Ford et al. 1981, Sunbird 11: 58-70), (2) research into the higher categories ofclassification, especially C.G.

Queensland Government Department of National Parks, Recreation, Sport and Racing 9 September 2013 Mr Trevor Ruthenberg MP Chair Health and Community Services Committee Parliament House George Street BRISBANE QLD 4000 Email: [email protected] Dear Mr Ruthenberg Thank you for the opportunity for the Department of National Parks, Recreation, Sport and Racing to present at the recent public briefing on the Nature Conservation and Other Legislation Amendment Bill (No. 2) 2013 (NCOLA Bill). As part of this briefing there were five questions taken on notice, with a response required from the department by 9 September 2013. I am pleased to provide the following responses to each of these questions to assist the Health and Community Services Committee in its inquiry into the NCOLA Bill. Question #1 The Committee requested information on the average cost of litigation paid per year by the State Government as a result of personal injuries sustained in national parks. The Committee further queried whether the savings from not being sued would go back into infrastructure, upkeep and management of tracks such as the Great Walk in Spring brook or Purlingbrook Falls. Department Response Advice from the department's In-house Legal team confirms it is not possible to provide a realistic average yearly figure for litigation because a large payment amount for a single claim in any one year will skew the statistics. What is expended yearly depends on claims made, claims settled and claims decided in the courts. A difference also exists between the investigation and legal costs that the State incurs and the payout amounts for successful claims.
