It is absolutely unbelievable and despicable that, over 12 months since thousands of people made submissions as part of the information process concerning new wind energy guidelines, we have yet to see where the Government stands on this issue. What consultation has the Minister had with his counterpart, the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government, on the new wind energy guidelines? When can we expect to see them published? Does the Minister agree there should be moratorium in place until such time as the wind energy guidelines are published and put on a statutory basis?
