This disclosure contains draft correspondence from November 2024 between Minister Tanya Plibersek and Senators Hanson-Young and Pocock regarding the Nature Positive Bills then before the Senate. The letters outline the Government's position on the bills and seek parliamentary support for their passage. Substantial portions of both drafts are redacted under section 47C(1) (Cabinet confidentiality), obscuring the specific policy commitments and amendments being proposed to secure crossbench support. The Minister requests confirmation of support for the bills and procedural votes, including potential guillotine motions to expedite passage. The disclosure does not contain scientific assessments, regulatory decisions, or environmental data relevant to specific EPBC Act determinations, instead documenting internal ministerial correspondence on environmental legislation strategy.
