1995 No 101 New South Wales

Notice of Final Determination and Amendment of Schedule 3 to Act

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:

Predation by the Ship Rat Rattus rattus on Lord Howe Island

The final determination to insert this matter in Schedule 3 has been made because the Scientific Committee is of the opinion that predation by the Ship Rat Rattus rattus on Lord Howe Island adversely affects two threatened species and could cause species or populations that are not threatened to become threatened.
