My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency, Senator Ludwig. In light of the recent communication to my office by Mr Paul Jarman, Assistant Director of Regional Projects for the Department of Planning and Community Development in Victoria, a copy of which has been supplied to your office, stating that the Waubra wind farm, which has been under review since it commenced in 2009, has not been signed off on any noise compliance by the Minister for Planning, Matthew Guy, therefore making it noncompliant, can the minister advise how the Waubra wind farm gained accreditation with the Clean Energy Regulator, which has enabled them to receive some tens of millions of dollars in renewable energy certificates?
