The Northern Territory Government engaged Dr Allan Hawke AC in 2014 to review the Northern Territory’s environmental assessment and approval processes.
This review, which was delivered in May 2015, is known as the Hawke II review.
It offers three options to reform the environmental assessment and approval framework, as well as 22 other recommendations for improvement.
The Northern Territory Government has agreed to adopt Dr Hawke’s recommended option for structural reform (option 3). It also broadly supports each of his 22 reform recommendations.
Option 3 is designed to build and strengthen the Northern Territory's current system.
Government’s longer term goal is to move towards a model for a single environmental approval. This is consistent with option 2 in the review.
