I seek leave to make an explanation as to a mistake I made in question time.

Leave granted.

At question time today I was asked a question by Senator Milne in relation to a development at Ralphs Bay. She asserted in her question that the Ralphs Bay development was a controlled action. Although I am aware of the development and aware of its impacts, I said in my answer that I thought it was ‘a controlled action’. I am told that it is not a controlled action at this stage. It is being assessed by the Tasmanian government and has not come to the Commonwealth at this stage. It is likely to come to the Commonwealth. It is likely to be a controlled action but I was under the misunderstanding that it is a controlled action at this stage and it is not.
