EPA Submissions

In addition to conducting its own reviews, the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) recognises that contributions into the work being undertaken by government is an important means of encouraging the wider adoption of the principles of sustainability.

These principles can provide direction for government in the areas of governance and policy development.
