The State Government is in the process of assessing the appropriateness of the changes outlined in the tabled document and has not yet formed its position on the merit of the proposed changes. Accordingly, to table the revised development plan document, at this stage, would be premature, as it may be construed that the revised development plan has Government support. 3. No firm time frames have been established for the Government’s assessment of revised development plan for Port Kennedy. 4. WABGR has carried out its own consultation program to date. Your question on the extent of consultation that has occurred so far should be directed to WABGR. Notwithstanding the consultation carried out by WABGR, any revised development plan will undergo a separate State Government initiated consultation process. 5. Government authorities, other than DPI, involved in assessing modifications to the Port Kennedy project include: · City of Rockingham; · Department of Conservation and Land Management · Department of Environment / Water and Rivers Commission; · Water Corporation; · Department of Fisheries; · Public Transport Authority; · Western Australian Tourist Commission; · Conservation Commission of WA; · Marine Parks and Reserves Authority; and · Western Australian Nation Parks and Reserves Association.
