Kate Cocks & Emily Murray | “Concern over proposed land reform changes”
As part of this week’s “Opinion Maker” show of Sarah’s Country, Kate Cocks of Mt Nicholas Station and Glenmore Station’s Emily Murray discuss the issues and implications around the Crown Pastoral Land Reform Bill.
Changes proposed in the Bill threaten the viability of high-country farming for pastoral lessees.
The Bill proposes to amend the Crown Pastoral Land Act 1998 and the Land Act 1948, to end tenure review and redesign the regulatory system to deliver improved Crown pastoral outcomes.
But farmers say the Bill is poorly drafted, placing unreasonable limitations on day-to-day farming activities for pastoral leaseholders.
