Senate debates Questions without Notice
Hasluck Electorate: Brickworks

I ask a supplementary question, Mr President. Does the minister agree with the member for Hasluck that the decision to approve the project was a ‘serious error’, that the government has failed the people he represents and that the local community will ‘bear the burden of this mistake for generations’? Why did the minister totally ignore the concerns of thousands of residents in approving the brickworks? Can the minister also advise whether, if there had been a proposal to put a wind farm at Perth airport, he have been more willing to listen to the community’s concerns?
