QuestionView source ↗

I refer to a newspaper article titled ‘The Green Agenda’ which appeared in the
Golden Mail Newspaper
on page 2, Friday, December 14 2001 -
(1) Is it correct that little over a year ago the Mt Pleasant environmental superintendent trumpeted a new approach to mine site rehabilitation wherein, instead of spending $15 million to rehabilitate an 800 square km area, scarred with mining pits and waste dumps the money would be redirected into new industries on surrounding pastoral properties?
(2) If so, was this done with the written approval of the Department of Minerals and Energy and what were the specific reasons why this was approved by the Department?
(3) Are all the environmental bonds still intact on all of the Mt Pleasant gold and nickel tenements and also Cawse gold and nickel tenements?
(4) If not, why not?
(5) If yes to (3), what are the amounts for each specific tenement number that have environmental bonds?
(6) Is it correct that in terms of rehabilitation and environmental standards that one side of the lease boundary is brilliantly done and the other could be likened to a moonscape?
(7) If yes, how did the Department of Minerals and Energy allow this to happen?
(8) If no to (6), why not?
