The planning processes that surround Commonwealth airport land leave most of the state planning processes for dead. I am aware of the issues that surround the airport that Senator Milne is referring to. In fact, I am aware that Senator Eric Abetz has led a high-level delegation of interested parties from the vicinity to Mr Truss this morning. I am sure that Senator Abetz will be very happy to brief Senator Milne on the outcomes of the meetings with Mr Truss. I commend Senator Abetz for being proactive in representing the interests of Tasmanian taxpayers in relation to this issue.
