About the NSW Priorities Action Statement

The Threatened Species Priorities Action Statement (PAS) outlines the broad strategies and detailed priority actions to be undertaken in NSW to:

• promote the recovery of threatened species, population and ecological communities
• manage key threatening processes.

The complete list of strategies and priority actions are readily available in one location: on this website.

The PAS will be reviewed every three years with input from the Natural Resources Commission, the Scientific Committee, the Social and Economic Advisory Council, the Biological Diversity Advisory Council, state and federal government agencies and the public.

A summary of the PAS is available below. You can also view detailed PAS information and search our databases for all priority actions across NSW.

The document also explains ways in which Catchment Management Authorities, Local Councils, environmental and community groups and the public can implement the PAS, and ways in which its success will be measured and monitored.
