Warrawong Sanctuary

06 Mar 2013 questionsarchive

A question put forward to the Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) regarding the Warrawong Sanctuary.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (15:02): Can the minister advise whether there is any means to ensure that the property is also kept free of weeds and that the fire hazards are minimised?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:02): As I advised the chamber, the site is owned privately by Ngarrindjeri Ruwe Contracting Pty Ltd. Those concerns will be issues of the private owner. Of course, where private owners contact my apartment for assistance with regards to pest management or fire management plans, we will help as we always would do.
