Sand Dredging

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:04): Supplementary: how will communities be consulted and informed on the current trial?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:04): That is an excellent question. I know that the team within the environment department, who I meet with every month or so, have a communications strategy, a consultation strategy in relation to what is occurring now and the results of what will occur. There was a huge amount of consultation in the lead-up to this trial, and I am sure that the community will be kept informed.
