NSW Dept of Planning and Environment

Some documents in the Collection were published prior to 1998 under 'Environmental Trusts' The NSW Environmental Trust was an independent statutory body that supported projects which enhance the environment of New South Wales. The Trust was established under the Environmental Trust Act 1998 (Act No.82, 1998) and administered grants across a diverse range of programs, including contestable grants, major projects, and various NSW Government initiatives. The Trust was under the purview of the Minister for the Environment and the parent department appears to have been the Environmental Protection Authority. The Trust, with the approval of the Minister, was able to arrange for the use of the services of any staff or facilities of a government department or public authority. The Trust was chaired by the NSW Minister for Energy and Heritage, and its members included representatives from Department of Planning and Environment, local government, the Nature Conservation Council and NSW Treasury. The Public Sector Employment and Management (Environment and Conservation) Order 2003 abolished the Environmental Protection Agency as a department and transferred its branches to the Department of Environment and Conservation. (6) From 4 April 2011, the Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water was abolished and its functions were transferred to the Principal Department, the Department of Premier and Cabinet. Most of its branches, including the staff of the Environmental Trust, became part of the Office of Environment and Heritage within the Department of Premier and Cabinet. (7) The Office of Environment and Heritage was abolished on 1 July 2019. Those persons employed in the Office of Environment and Heritage, including the staff of the Environmental Trust, were transferred to the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment. © State of New South Wales through Museums of History NSW
