DONNELLY RIVER MILL
I refer to the Donnelly Mill, which is the only wood-fired sawdust steam-driven mill of its kind in Australia, and is of great heritage value to Western Australia. If immediate action is not taken it will be too late to restore it. (1) Will the minister confirm that at a public meeting in Manjimup on 4 December 2003, a departmental spokesperson gave an agreement to commence termite treatment in the mill, but which to this day has not been done? (2) Will the minister authorise an immediate development of an official inventory; and, if not, why not? (3) Will the minister authorise the temporary staying of the tall chimneys; and, if not, why not? (4) Will the minister authorise immediate specification preparation and the calling of tenders for the treatment of the termites on site; and, if not, why not? (5) Will the minister authorise the immediate hand digging of small drains to stop rainwater running into and under the building; and, if not, why not? (6) Will the minister authorise the erection of temporary props in the main building as required? (7) Will the minister start the repair of the main roof gutters? (8) Will the minister get a detailed analysis of where the restoration project of the Donnelly Mill is up to at the present time? Hon LJILJANNA RAVLICH
