Shaping of coastal policy and the legacy of the 1969 Little Desert
In Victoria, 90% of the coast is public land, and community organisations like the Victorian National Parks Association are committed to keeping it like this.

We hear (among others) from Geoff Wescott, who has been deeply involved with shaping coastal and marine environmental policies in Victoria. In 2015 he chaired the expert panel that advise our current 2018 Marine and Coastal Act.
