I thank the honourable member for some notice of this
question.
(1)–(6)
The Environmental Protection Authority is currently assessing the Mangles Bay
marina-based tourism precinct. The proponent has provided a draft response to
submissions to the public environmental review document, which the Office of
the Environmental Protection Authority is currently reviewing. While the
Environmental Protection Authority's assessment is in progress, it is
inappropriate for me to comment further on these matters, other than to say
that government will give careful consideration to both the environmental and
social issues associated with the proposed marina.
