I am advised that the written comments from the Department of Consumer and Employment Protection (DOCEP) referred to in the Hon. Member's question relate to a letter dated 28 March 2006 from the State Mining Engineer, Mr M.J. Knee, addressed to Mr K.J. Taylor of the Environmental Protection Authority. An e-mail exchange may also be relevant and is included in the documents to be tabled.
(1)-(4) See Tabled Paper No.
I draw the Hon. Member's attention to the fact that the Department of Consumer and Employment Protection assumed responsibility for mining safety legislation on 1 July 2005 from the Department of Industry and Resources.
