AnswerView source ↗
Had the Leader of the Opposition given me some notice of his question, I could have found the percentage figure. Indeed — Mr E.S. Ripper : Will it be Ningaloo standard, for example? Ms M.M. Quirk interjected. The SPEAKER : Order, members! Mr C.J. BARNETT : We are not compulsorily acquiring Camden Sound. Do a bit of research to understand it! Mr P.B. Watson : Didn’t you have a good holiday, cob? Mr C.J. BARNETT : I had a great holiday. Mr E.S. Ripper : Will it be equivalent to what is at Ningaloo, for example? Mrs M.H. Roberts interjected. The SPEAKER : Thank you, members! Mr C.J. BARNETT : Very shortly the government will be detailing all the aspects of Camden Sound and — Mr E.S. Ripper : So you won’t confirm that it will be equivalent to Ningaloo. Mr C.J. BARNETT : If the Leader of the Opposition wishes to know the exact area of the sanctuary zones, I will provide him with that information when we formally announce the detail. However, I assure him that there are two very extensive sanctuary zones within the Camden marine park.
