The Chief Minister wants to hand herself - and an unelected bureaucrat - sweeping and unprecedented powers to override and fast-track environmental approvals for some of the most destructive projects in the country.
You may have heard that the Northern Territory Government has been conducting a secret consultation on a proposal to fundamentally undermine the Territory regulations that help protect our environment, our health, and our communities.
If the proposal is passed into law, it could mean that the Territory Coordinator and Chief Minister have the power to step in and undertake an assessment of projects themselves, instead of the NT Environmental Protection Authority or other relevant decision-makers. It could also mean that the Territory Coordinator and Chief Minister could exempt projects from approvals altogether.
This proposal is the death knell for the recommendations of the Pepper Inquiry into fracking, and could see fracking and gas pipelines as well as cotton expansion and carbon dumping approved with no oversight, no community input, and no environmental assessment.
We are aiming to bring the community together on Tuesday 26 November 2024 at Parliament House, where we will also table a petition urging the withdrawal of plans to establish the role of Territory Coordinator and bulldoze democracy and accountability in the NT.
