The federal government says it has received more than 21,000 emails regarding proposed changes to how major projects are reviewed. The government will spend the coming weeks reviewing and analyzing the submissions. According to reporting, the proposals would modify the current assessment process and include plans to allow some projects to proceed for approval before completing certain assessments. The government’s review of the email submissions is intended to inform how the changes are finalized and implemented. While outlets describe the overall volume of public input and the government’s next steps, they do not indicate what positions were most common among respondents. The information also does not specify which specific projects or sectors are most affected by the proposed approach. Overall, the coverage emphasizes the intake of public feedback by the federal government and its plan to assess that feedback before moving forward with the proposed revisions to major project review rules.
