Species are allocated to the data-deficient management stream when there is not enough knowledge about their ecology, distribution, threats or management needs to inform an effective management strategy.

This document outlines how the NSW Government’s Saving our Species (SoS) program creates conservation strategies for ensuring the survival of data-deficient species.

The SoS program provides a framework for prioritising investment in threatened species and ecological communities in New South Wales, based on a cost-benefit approach. 

The aim of the program is to develop targeted strategies for managing threatened plants and animals, ecological communities and key threatening processes using the best available information.
