'There must be serious consequences': Federal government investigates NT land clearing ⁦@abcnews⁩ https://t.co/IJwsRC38bi

[Tanya Plibersek @tanya_plibersek]

These reports are very concerning.

Land clearing is putting enormous pressure on Aust’s native plants + animals. We need to put a stop to unauthorised land clearing to help protect our threatened species.

There must be serious consequences for anyone who does the wrong thing.
