AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice
of this question.
(1)–(3) A report to Parliament will be tabled once the
Minister for Environment has finalised the review. There are no immediate time
frames under consideration. Any proposed changes to the WARR act will be
articulated as part of the review report. The strategic waste infrastructure
planning report was prepared for the Waste Authority to provide advice to the
minister and has been used to inform the WARR act review. As this review has
not yet been finalised, the minister is not prepared to release the report at
this time.
