Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This 26 May 1983 proclamation, made by the Governor‑General with Federal Executive Council advice under s8(3) of the World Heritage Properties Conservation Act 1983, brings two Tasmanian Aboriginal sites (Kutikina/Fraser Cave and Deena Reena Cave) within the scope of section 11. It doesn’t amend the Act or set new penalties itself but activates section 11’s legal regime for those places based on an administrative “satisfaction” that they were likely to be damaged or destroyed.
