I thank the member for some notice of this question. Most of the information sought by the member has been made publicly available in a series of newsletters to local residents, which I now table. Additional information on sampling and analysis in relation to the waste control clean-up is in preparation. The Minister for the Environment and Heritage will make copies available when they are printed. I table the attached documents. [See paper No 431.]
