AnswerView source ↗

A development agreement was signed for the Wheatstone project some time ago, and as part of that, we are now progressing with the drafting of a state agreement act. Mr E.S. Ripper : Will you table that development agreement? Mr C.J. BARNETT : No, I will not. But I will, quite properly, bring into Parliament an agreement act for the Wheatstone project if and when the final investment decision is made.
