The government does not support the motion as it prejudges significant breaches to have occurred in anticipation of Commonwealth and state compliance processes and calls for construction to cease based on that prejudgement. However the Minister for the Environment and Energy advises that he can provide Senator Ludlam with a summary of correspondence or reports made to the minister or the department with evidence of compliance breaches with approval conditions since construction commenced, and response to each, and information about whether federal or state compliance officers have been on site since construction began.
