My question is to the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and the Arts, I refer the minister to the Queensland government’s environmental impact assessment for the Traveston Crossing Dam, which the minister is currently assessing and which is opposed by 80 per cent of the people in South-East Queensland. Does the minister regard Queensland’s proposal to continuously catch Australian lung fish, Mary River cod and Mary River turtles and carry them around the Traveston Crossing Dam as a satisfactory way to save these endangered species whose habitat will be destroyed by the dam?
