nator THORPE () (): My question is for the Minister representing the Minister for Industry and Science, Minister Farrell. The federal government have spent $13 million on legal fees alone to try and force their nuclear waste dump on the land of the Barngarla people, who have spent less than $500,000, as there was no consent for this dump. How do the Labor government reconcile the vast power and resource disparity they use to deny First People their self-determination?
