WA Biodiscovery Bill: information sessions

About these information sessions

A series of 7 information sessions will be held in various regional locations across WA and in Perth for stakeholders to hear about recommendations from Phase 1 of consultation held in 2022 and the proposed model for how the Bill is expected to work in practice.

Each session will be led by Ms Roanna Edwards from PricewaterhouseCoopers Indigenous Consulting Pty Ltd and be supported by a graphic scribe. Register for a session by clicking on the relevant link below.
