The minister would be aware of the coal development that is currently under way north of the Murrurundi Range in the Gunnedah basin and that the government expended about $1 million in relation to a consultants’ report into improving coal train access through the Murrurundi Range, the Liverpool Range. I would like the minister, if he could, to give us a status report as to what the government is doing with that consultants’ report. Are there any intentions in relation to AusLink 2 to improve the access from the Gunnedah-Boggabri coal basin through the Murrurundi Range based on the six possibilities that were raised in that consultants’ report?
