The boundaries  and maps of the 6 National Parks are currently being reviewed by my Department and will be made publicly available on completion. 

The records the Deputy is requesting relate to the day-to-day routine operations of 87,000 hectares over the course of 13 years. As such, they would be voluminous and it would be resource intensive and neither a feasible nor effective use of those resources. In addition, it is not practical to identify the entirety of the extensive cache in the time available.
