Conservation groups storm out of consultations over land-clearing law

Groups including Wilderness Society, Humane Society and Total Environment Centre say NSW process is 'skewed towards radicals in the National party'

Conservation groups have stormed out of consultations with the NSW government over an overhaul of land-clearing laws they say have been a sham and will fast-track bushland destruction in the state.

The move could reignite one the biggest environmental battles in New South Wales in recent years.
