My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government, Senator Conroy. I refer the minister to the decision of the government, announced in the green paper of 2 December last year, to exclude Badgerys Creek as a potential site for Sydney’s second airport. Can the government now provide a guarantee to residents of the Sydney basin that it has also ruled out Kurnell, Holsworthy army base and Richmond as potential sites for a second airport?
