Section 341JC — Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999: Statement to be given to Minister with proposed priority assessment list

(1) When the Australian Heritage Council gives the Minister the priority assessment list for an assessment period, the Council must also give the Minister a statement setting out such information as the Council considers appropriate relating to: (a) for each place that is included in the list—why the Council included the place in the list; and (b) for each place that is not included in the list but that was eligible for assessment consideration because of paragraph 341JA(3)(a) or (c)—why the Council did not include the place in the list. (2) The statement must also identify, as places nominated by the Australian Heritage Council: (a) any places that are included in the list because the Council itself wishes to nominate them (see paragraph 341JA(3)(b)); and (b) any places that are included in the list because of paragraph 341JA(3)(d) that consist of one or more places to which paragraph 341JA(3)(b) applies.
