HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (15:01):</by>  We have an advisory role; we do not have any particular power on commonwealth land. The same thing would apply to the Adelaide Airport, for example. But, nonetheless, we work very closely with organisations and usually our involvement is welcome, and I expect it has been in this case and will continue to be.</text>
