The Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water requested environmental history information from BP Developments Australia Pty Limited regarding the Browse to North West Shelf Development (EPBC 2018/8319) in the Indian Ocean, Western Australia. Under section 136(4) of the EPBC Act, the Minister was assessing whether BP Developments Australia was a suitable person to receive project approval. The department sought the company's environmental history, including that of its executive officers and parent bodies, covering the previous ten years and any environmental matters not previously disclosed since the project referral. This information was intended to inform the Minister's decision on whether to approve the proposed action and what conditions to attach, as required under section 132 of the EPBC Act.
