(a) – (d) Information of this nature does not exist in a format that allows for a ready response to this question. The provision of this information involves considerable investigation of individual departmental records which would divert staff away from their normal duties and I am not prepared to allocate the State's resources to provide an answer.
(e) – (j) This information is produced and published quarterly on the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety’s website and can be accessed at: http://www.dmp.wa.gov.au/Investors/Approvals-14055.aspx
(k) This information will be available and published on the Department’s website in August 2018.
