Witton Bluff Base Trail Project

The Hon. L.A. HENDERSON (14:56): Supplementary question: can the minister advise whether there were any briefings from the department during this time?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:56): I thank the honourable member. I regularly get updates on all heritage matters—well, regular updates on heritage matters from the department; those that are under consultation or those that are looking at consultation. I think this matter first started for consultation when the member for Dunstan, the Hon. Steven Marshall, was the Premier and the minister responsible for Aboriginal affairs. But as I have said, there were no decisions made whatsoever prior to my appointing a new decision-maker in this area.
