It formally declares specific parcels of land as protected areas.\n\n**What it does:**\n- Lists **five separate lots of land** with their exact sizes:\n  - **Lot 1:** ~27.51 hectares\n  - **Lot 2:** ~8.803 hectares\n  - **Lot 3:** ~6,613 square metres\n  - **Lot 4:** ~839 square metres  \n  - **Lot 5:** ~22.30 hectares\n\n- Includes a **plan** (Schedule 2) showing where these lots are located on a map\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- Landowners and neighbours of these specific lots\n- The Tasmanian Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment (which manages the land)\n- Anyone wanting to use or develop this land in future\n\n**Why it matters:**\nOnce proclaimed under the *Nature Conservation Act*, this land receives **legal protection** for conservation purposes. It likely becomes a nature reserve, national park, or similar protected area. This restricts what activities can occur there—typically banning or limiting development, logging, mining, or other uses that would harm natural values."},"summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"Insufficient operative content is available to assess whether the scope of this Proclamation changed from its original intent.
