View answerLicence applications received in to the National Parks & Wildlife Service (NPWS) are processed as efficiently as possible with the current resource allocation. Many of these applications require assessment at local level and this workload is being managed in tandem with many other priorities.
Individual applications do not receive an acknowledgement, however, any queries from applicants are dealt with in a timely manner.
