QuestionView source ↗
I refer to the Premier’s public statement, through his open letter, of his decision to reject the Mauds Landing development proposal. (1) When was the open letter to the people of Western Australia prepared? (2) By what legal authority did the Premier become the “delegated” minister on the Mauds Landing decision as stated in his open letter? (3) Will the Leader of the House, on behalf of the Premier, table documents proving his legal authority to make the decision? (4) Did the Premier consider the social and economic benefits of the Mauds Landing proposal as part of his often-stated triple bottom line approach and, if so, why is the environmental aspect the only one mentioned in the Premier’s public explanation of the decision? (5) What was the nature of the overwhelming evidence that came forward through the appeals committee that the Premier referred to in his public discussion with Paul Murray on 4 July? (6) Will the Government follow the same due process in making its decision on the Gorgon gas proposal? Hon KIM CHANCE
