Mr President, I thank the minister for that and ask a supplementary question. I am disappointed that the department does not think that the Burrup is significant enough to provide a brief on. I ask him then to take a question on notice. Is the minister aware that the WA EPA has given permission for preliminary works to be undertaken on Pluto area B and that this could start any day? Will the minister ensure that any work that is undertaken does not affect cultural material on Pluto area B until after his deliberation in respect of sections 9 and 10 applications?
