My question is to the Minister for Industry, Tourism and Resources. I refer to Ziggy Switkowski’s confirmation that the development of an Australian nuclear power industry would require the Commonwealth to control, regulate and site nuclear reactors. Will the government rule out taking away planning controls from the states to build such reactors?

The government is yet to respond to that report, and I look forward to the government’s response to that report.
