34. Hon ROBIN CHAPPLE to the minister representing the

I refer to the Adele Island Nature Reserve, which is located
off the Kimberley coast.
(1) Is the

recognition of its status as a bird breeding sanctuary, is still awaiting
government nomination for listing under the Ramsar Convention?
(2) If no to (1), why not?
(3) If yes to
(1), when will the minister move to nominate the island, thus achieving greater
protection for the bird population of this unique island habitat?
