The Scientific Committee established under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 has, in pursuance of Division 3 of Part 2 of that Act, made a final determination to insert the following matter in Schedule 3 to that Act (Key threatening processes) and, accordingly, that Schedule is amended as set out in Annexure “A” to this Notice:

Competition from feral honey bees, Apis mellifera L.

The final determination to insert this matter in Schedule 3 has been made because the Scientific Committee is of the opinion that competition from feral honey bees could cause species, populations or ecological communities that are not threatened to become threatened.

The National Parks Centre

Sydney

and at all Area Offices and Visitor Centres of the National Parks and Wildlife
