Heads of Maritime Area and Foreshore (Amendment) Bill 2013: Discussion (Resumed)

1:25 pm

Ms Karin Dubsky:

No. In the proposed new Bill it goes all the way out. One has to be extra careful. I would not put out an exclusion zone of so many metres. However, I would put in place - and it is what we have to do by law anyway - a network of marine protected areas first, before putting in oil rigs and other material, so it would be in the right order.
