An expert panel to advise governments on coal seam gas and coal mining 
projects will be formally established by July 1.
The $150 million scientific committee was part of a deal independent MP Tony 
Windsor made with Labor in exchange for his support of the mining tax.
It will provide advice on the coal seam gas industry and undertake 
bioregional assessments.
In particular, it will look at proposals that could significantly impact 
water resources.
