Have your say about the draft Landholder Negotiation Scheme Regulation

The NSW Government is seeking feedback on the draft Landholder Negotiation Scheme (LNS) Regulation, as part of a public exhibition process being held from Monday 16 September to 11:59pm (AEDT) on Sunday 24 November 2024. Submissions can be made online, via email or via post.

About the draft LNS Regulation

The draft LNS Regulation and negotiation guidelines outline the approach the NSW Government will take when negotiating voluntary agreements with landholders affected by future environmental water deliveries at higher flow levels, or under different regimes, than current operating practice.

Where landholders are identified as being affected by these flow deliveries, the NSW Government has committed to mitigating impacts through agreements.   

The draft LNS Regulation is designed to protect the interests of landholders and ensure all negotiations are conducted in good faith.

To ensure stakeholders have access to the information they need to make their submissions, webinars and small group information sessions are planned for September and October 2024.
