Report key to independent advice
During the 2022–23 financial year, the EPA provided independent environmental advice to government on 48 development proposals, while also developing guidance to improve environmental outcomes.
The EPA’s Annual Report, presented to the Western Australian Parliament, outlines the EPA’s operations as governed by the Environmental Protection Act 1986. These disclosures are fundamental to the EPA’s ability to provide independent robust and transparent advice.
The Annual Report also highlights the EPA’s commitment to genuine consultation. This meaningful engagement continues to inform EPA decision-making and helps achieve environmental protection outcomes.
