(Question No. 1859)


Mrs Johnston asked the Minister for Administrative Services, upon notice, on 17 June 1997:

What is the status of the licence application from Victoria Petroleum for prospecting and search on North West Cape in Western Australia.


Mr Jull —The answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:

I have referred the application to the Environment Protection Group (EPG) under the administrative procedures approved under the Environment Protection (Impact of Proposals) Act 1974 (`the EPIP Act'). The Minister for the Environment will determine the level of assessment required and make recommendations for my consideration.
