  • No. 72 Great Koala National Park Steering Committee
    Submission No 72 INQUIRY INTO KOALA POPULATIONS AND HABITAT IN NEW SOUTH WALES Organisation: Great Koala National Park Steering Committee Date Received: 1 August 2019 GKNP Steering Committee C/- Paula Flack 31 July 2019 Submission to the Inquiry into koala populations and habitat in NSW Dear Committee, Please accept this submission to the Inquiry into Koala Populations and Habitat in NSW. We hope the Inquiry can help the NSW Government implement steps that will see koala declines reversed before it is too late. The GKNP Steering Committee is a non- incorporated informal group of local citizens who came together to promote the proposed Great Koala National Park (GKNP). The GKNP is a proposed network of existing and new national parks on the mid north coast that will help protect our national icon. The GKNP is proposed by the NSW National Parks Association. Visit GKNP for more information. The GKNP Steering Committee was formed once the GKNP proposal was released and includes active members from local and regional conservation groups as well as people from diverse backgrounds who are not associated with conservation groups eg Aboriginal cultural heritage, tourism, education and media. The committee is working together for a common purpose – to see the GKNP become a reality and critical koala habitat protected in perpetuity. Protecting identified critical koala habitat in a park such as the GKNP would provide koalas with a good chance of surviving in NSW. If we continue with business as usual, koalas will continue to die and slide towards extinction. The Steering Committee believes strongly that the implementation of the GKNP, if properly supported, will provide considerable social, economic and environmental benefits to the local and regional communities.
