by leave—I table a non-conforming petition of over 17,000 people celebrating the magnificent natural and cultural heritage values of the Nullarbor Plain, including that it contains the largest arid landscape karst system in the world, and raising concerns about the impact on those values of a gargantuan industrial development, over one-third the size of Tasmania, that is proposed for that area.
