On behalf of the Minister for Local Government and Regional Development, I thank Hon Barry House for notice of his question. (1) Ground disturbing activity was stopped when a member of the public advised that the work was impacting on a registered heritage Aboriginal site. Investigations by the Department of Indigenous Affairs revealed that the proponents did not have the required consent of the Minister for Indigenous Affairs under section 18 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 for the use of the land on which the site is situated. (2) Yes. (3) Yes. However, the situation could have been avoided if the proponents had addressed Aboriginal heritage issues properly at an earlier stage of planning. If this had occurred, the site could either have been avoided or a notice seeking the consent of the Minister for Indigenous Affairs for the use of the relevant land under section 18 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act could have been lodged well in advance of the proposed work. (4) The minister cannot authorise the resumption of work on the water connection without receiving a recommendation from the Aboriginal Cultural Material Committee under section 18 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act in relation to the proposed use of the land. To assist the proponents, the Registrar of Aboriginal Sites has agreed to accept a late notice under section 18 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act. This will ensure that the Aboriginal Cultural Material Committee can consider the notice when it meets on 2 and 3 December 2003. (5) See answer to (4).
