With regard to the Environmental Protection Authority’s new assessment, by three independent delegates, of the proposed Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) hub near Broome to service the Browse Basin gas fields that was announced on 16 May 2014, I ask:
(a) are there currently any indications by private businesses or companies that they might be interested in using an on-shore LNG processing facility near Broome, whether at James Price Point or elsewhere in the Kimberley:
(i) if yes to (a), which companies have expressed an interest and for which area of land; and
(ii) if no to (a), to what end is the new assessment being carried out and for whom;
(b) what will be the cost to West Australian taxpayers of the new assessment; and
(c) what are the terms of reference that will apply to the delegates’ assessment and when will they report to the Minister for Environment?
