North Stradbroke Island Region

North Stradbroke Island Protection and Sustainability (Renewal of Mining Leases) Amendment Bill 2015

This bill would have ended sand mining on North Stradbroke Island (Minjerribah) by the end of 2024, with land rehabilitation allowed to continue until the end of 2029. It amended the North Stradbroke Island Protection and Sustainability Act 2011 to shrink where mining could occur and to block any lease renewals beyond 2029. The bill was discharged and did not become law.
