QuestionView source ↗

With regard to the proposed mining in the Ludlow state forest on tenement M70/86, I ask - (1) Has the minister granted express consent to undertake mining operations on this tenement as set out in section 24(6)(a) of the Mining Act 1978; and, if so, when was this consent given? (2) Will the minister table written copies of any such consent given? (3) If not, why not? (4) Will the minister table copies of any terms or conditions issued with this consent, and advise what due diligence was carried out in issuing this consent? (5) If not, why not? (6) If no to (1), will the minister specifically refuse his consent to mine on the grounds that the state forest in question is too valuable to be subject to mining? (7) If not, why not? Hon KEN TRAVERS
