This submision sets out the dimensions of NSW’s weed threat – the extent and costs of weed invasion, the rate of introductions and naturalisations, and invasion drivers – and then proposes reforms to legislation, policy, governance arrangements and funding.
It particularly stresses the need to fully implement a prevention focus and to develop a sustainable funding model.
