Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 1545 asked in the Legislative Council on 4 December 2019 by Hon Robin Chapple

Parliament: 40 Session: 1

BURRUP PENINSULA — ROCK ACIDITY

1545. Hon ROBIN CHAPPLE to the Minister for Environment:

I refer to question without notice 1266 asked on 29 October 2019 and the answer to (3) about the site known as the big goanna petroglyph on Murujuga.

(1) Has the minister investigated what has caused the change in pH at that site?

(2) If no to (1), why not?

(3) If yes to (1), what were the findings of that investigation?

(4) If yes to (1), who was responsible for the dramatic change in pH of the test site?

(5) Will any action be taken against the perpetrator?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

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

(1)–(5) I have requested the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation to investigate this matter. This investigation is ongoing and I expect to have the report in due course. I commit to tabling this report once it has been finalised.
