Strategy for Australia's National Reserve System 2009-2030

Australia’s National Reserve System Strategy 2009-2030 has been developed by the Commonwealth, states and territories, who have all agreed to work towards clear targets to secure long-term protection for our terrestrial biodiversity. One of our most effective tools in securing this natural life support system is Australia’s National Reserve System (NRS) – the nation-wide network of parks, reserves and private protected areas. - Media Release Peter Garrett 2 Jun 2009.
