(1) I am unaware of the existence of any such protocol.
(2) Not applicable.
(3) The deliberative process with respect to the Notice submitted by Hanson Construction Materials Pty Ltd under section 18 of the
Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972
(the Notice) is not complete at this time and I am therefore not in a position to respond to this question. I have not made, and cannot make, a decision about the Notice as I am constrained from doing so as an identified decision-maker through the provisions of Part IV of the
Environmental Protection Act 1986
.
(4) Not applicable.
