OZschwitz Slave Pen: Trees at university cut down without government approval

The ANU has cut down trees during works on University Avenue without government approval as part of the Union Court redevelopment.

The university said they had mistakenly cut down several trees without approval from the National Capital Authority, which required an application before tree felling was allowed.

"The University wrongly believed the NCA in early January had given approval for the tree removals," an ANU spokesman said.

"Once ANU became aware of the mistake, the University informed the NCA of the error. ANU has halted work on that element of the building project until works are approved. The University is continuing to work with the NCA over the approvals."
