I refer to the revised groundwater quality monitoring program at the former Jangardup mine.

(2) If yes to (1), will the minister please table the results and any subsequent reports?

(3) If no to (1), when will the program be completed and the results available?

(4) If no to (2), why not?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question.

(1) No.
