From the Department of Primary Industries:

On Thursday October 4th 2012 Minister for Primary Industries, Katrina Hodgkinson, announced the amalgamation of existing agricultural and natural resource management agencies into a new Local Land Services organisation.

From January 2014, Local Land Services will deliver functions currently provided by 13 Catchment Management Authorities (CMAs) and 14 Livestock Health & Pest Authorities (LHPAs) and agriculture advisory services of Agriculture NSW (part of the Department of Primary Industries).

"Local Land Services will be regionally-based, semi-autonomous, statutory organisations, which are governed by locally elected and skills-based Board members, delivering services for farmers and landowners."

The new Local Land Services will deliver:
  • agricultural advice
  • plant and animal pest control and biosecurity
  • natural resource management
  • emergency and disaster assessment and response.
More information about the new organisation is available from the Department of Primary Industries [5].
