My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. It follows the environment minister's cultural heritage declaration on old the McPhillamys gold mine project. On 29 August, New South Wales Aboriginal Land Council chair and local Wiradjuri man, Roy Ah-See, said:

We've got an Aboriginal elder, he's a man who speaks with authority, and he believes—

the section 10 application on the McPhillamys gold mine near Blayney was 'fabricated'.

Will the government now review Ms Plibersek's declaration, including to investigate whether the claims she upheld were falsified?
