I refer to the minister’s reply to the question I asked yesterday, Tuesday, 2 March, regarding dust from the CSR Limited quarry in Gosnells. (1) What evidence available to the Environmental Protection Authority and the Department of Environmental Protection led to the conclusion that “There has been some indication that the surrounding areas may, on occasions, be in breach of a national environmental protection measure - NEPM - for fine dust”? (2) Does the DEP/EPA consider the data that indicated these occasional breaches to be reliable? (3) Will the minister table the report or reports from which that data was derived? Hon TOM STEPHENS
