PERTH AND PEEL GREEN GROWTH PLAN FOR 3.5 MILLION —
STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT
285. Mr C.J. TALLENTIRE to the Minister for Environment:
I have a supplementary question. I take
it from the minister's answer that he is saying no. Given that the last
time the minister played fast and loose with environmental approvals on Roe 8,
the Chief Justice sent him back to the drawing board, why is the minister
trying to cut corners again?

Fast and loose? This government from
day one set out with an ambitious plan for conservation right across this state
and more than five years of work has gone into the first attempt from any
government to address the environmental challenges across the Perth and Peel
region. It has been done across government in partnership with planning, land
use planning and the need for infrastructure corridors. Years and years of work
have gone into this program. We have just extended public consultation for
another two months. We are running roadshows right around the state to inform
all stakeholders, be they conservation, industry or community groups in
general. An incredible amount of work has gone into this program. I object
entirely to the ''fast and loose'' question.
