OAKAJEE PORT AND RAIL PROJECT — STATE AGREEMENT ACT
I have a supplementary question. Can the Premier explain why Oakajee Port and Rail has very definitively told the opposition that there will be no state agreement act with regard to this project? Mr C.J. BARNETT

AnswerView source ↗

Oakajee Port and Rail will not be building a rail or a port without a state agreement act, simple as that. It will be the government that determines that, not Oakajee Port and Rail.
