Enterprise Mine (ML 1105, ML 1117, ML 1120)

North Stradbroke Island Protection and Sustainability and Others Acts Amendment Bill 2015

This bill reverses 2013 changes that had extended sand mining on North Stradbroke Island (Minjerribah) out to 2035, restoring the original plan to end mining substantially by 2019. It also creates a new power for former mine operators across Queensland to re-enter land to finish rehabilitation after their mining leases expire.
