        <text id="202111164d61b99590c348e4a0000613">
          <inserted>That this council requests Her Excellency the Governor to make a proclamation under section 29(3) of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 to abolish Cleland Conservation Park and to make a proclamation under section 30(2) of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 to abolish Eurilla Conservation Park.</inserted>
        </text>
        <text continued="true" id="202111164d61b99590c348e4a0000614">The purpose of abolishing the current Cleland Conservation Park and Eurilla Conservation Park is to allow for the land to be reproclaimed as Cleland National Park. Together, these two parks conserve an important area of bushland situated in the Adelaide Hills Face Zone of approximately 1,032 hectares, which provides habitat for at least 148 species of native fauna, along with 690 species of native flora. The proposed reclassification to national park will better reflect the area's nationally significant environmental and cultural values and provide greater opportunities for visitors, which will be more appropriately managed under a single land tenure.</text>
        <text id="202111164d61b99590c348e4a0000615">The land is located within the Kaurna native title determination area. Although native title has been determined not to exist over the parks, Kaurna Yerta Aboriginal Corporation were advised of the proposal to reclassify Cleland to national park status. Subject to the resolution of this house, Her Excellency the Governor will be requested to abolish the two parks and to concurrently constitute the land as the new Cleland National Park, pursuant to section 28(1) of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972. I commend this motion to the council.</text>
