3603 - FERAL ANIMAL SHOOTING CONTRACTS

Donato, Philip to the Minister for Skills, TAFE and Tertiary Education representing the Minister for Agriculture, Minister for Regional New South Wales, and Minister for Western New South Wales

Having regard to your answer to Q.2985, can you please advise why private sector service procurement is not being applied by the Local Lands Services to allow regionally-based professional aerial shooting contractors to tender for NSW Government-funded feral animal aerial shooting contracts?
Answer -

LLS has developed the Contractor Aerial Shooting Team (CAST) Framework.

This Framework allows LLS to engage contract aerial shooters by outlining clear application processes, training requirements, and operating standards.

It also establishes procedures that align with the NSW Government Feral Animal Aerial Shooting Team standards, ensuring the highest safety measures are maintained while minimising risks.

Trialling of the CAST Framework will commence in the second half of this financial year.
