In short:

Reworked reforms to the EPBC Act will be introduced this year, after the government's proposal was shelved ahead of the federal election.

Environment Minister Murray Watt said the legislation would be broader than what was introduced last term.

What's next?

The bill will be introduced by the final sitting week in late November.
