10 Consultation

The National Recovery Plan for the Swift Parrot has been developed through extensive consultation with a broad range of stakeholders. The consultation process brought together key species experts and conservation managers to categorise ongoing threats to the Swift Parrot, and identify knowledge gaps and potential management options. Consultation included representatives from government agencies, non-government organisations, researchers and local community groups. During the drafting process the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (Cwlth) continued to work closely with key stakeholders.

Notice of the draft plan was made available for public comment between 4 March 2019 and 7 June 2019. Any comments received that were relevant to the recovery of the species were considered by the Threatened Species Scientific Committee as part of its assessment process.
