2.2     1         Complete State-wide database to assess conservation priority.                                                                                                                                                                                Every 2–3 years                 118,000
2.3     1         Improve our understanding on key biological functions to facilitate a better and shared understanding of the ecology including breeding system, recruitment, disturbance ecology and the best-practice management of the Spiny Rice-flower.  Year 1–5                        345,000

3.1     1         Coordination role for recovery team and recovery actions                                                                                                                                                                                     Ongoing                         250,000
3.2     1         Work with community groups actively engaged in Spiny Rice-flower management (directly or indirectly) to codify management, at least for the priority sites.                                                                                  Ongoing                         150,000

3.3     1         Engage with new community groups to lead/assist with adaptive conservation management of other priority sites not traditionally managed at all.                                                                                              Ongoing                         150,000

a The action and corresponding priority and cost will be assessed at the 5-year review and adjusted accordingly for the remaining lifespan of this Recovery Plan.
b Values 1-3 are in decreasing order of priority with 3 being lowest priority. The action's priority was based on the threat risk (Table 1) and implementation of the previous Recovery Plan Appendix Table 2
c Year of the new Recovery Plan. Recovery Plan commencement year = Year 1.
d Indicative amount, based on assumption that this task would be undertaken by a dedicated officer or a number of officers with part of their role dedicated to this specific task (the figure is the approximate costs for the 5 year period based on an estimated percentage of person's full time equivalent (FTE).
e Indicative amount for one site only.

7.5                 Interactions with existing plans, policies and programs
This Recovery Plan is influenced by, responds to, complements and/or overlaps with a range of other strategic policies and plans. The Recovery Plan seeks to identify common approaches and actions between these existing plans and programs to provide an integrated and efficient approach to the management and recovery of the species. In addition to Commonwealth, State and local government plans and policies, there are protocols that have been developed and/or endorsed by the Recovery Team to guide the recovery actions for Spiny Rice-flower.
