The Deputy Leader of the Opposition and the Leader of the Nationals have asked about the statement of reasons. I've made it clear to the company that they'll get a statement of reasons. Just as the previous environment minister made this decision for the same reasons, based on advice from the same group for an area not 50 kilometres away, her decision was also not universally popular. In fact, when she made her decision, there was an ABC News article which said, from the mayor:

From my point of view, she's got it wrong …

We've done all the homework that we could, we've got all the advice … and I'm disappointed she didn't take that on notice …

I table that media report from the mayor of the time. Not everyone was happy with the reasons that were provided. Here is an article from the Western Advocate that also complained about her reasons. (Time expired)
