I understand that the department has spoken to the community to reassure them that there is no intention by the government to reopen the Wallerberdina site, because they have already clearly stated that they don't want the facility in that location. Also, statements by both me in this place and the minister in the other place have been very clear that this decision and these amendments does not reflect a decision to change our position on that particular site.
