Mr Tuckey
asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and the Arts, in writing, on 22 October 2008:
What are the physical properties of the entire Kimberley coastline of approximately 6,000 kilometres, that differ from the southern Western Australian coastline that deem the Kimberley sector as ‘fragile’ or ‘environmentally sensitive’, and therefore, worthy of World Heritage protection from commercial development.
Mr Garrett (Minister for the Environment, Heritage and the Arts)
—The answer to the honourable member’s question is as follows:
The Australian Government has not submitted any nomination for World Heritage Listing of the Kimberley Region.
World Heritage listing is reserved for places of outstanding universal value to all humankind. Prior to any such listing, a comprehensive assessment, nomination and consultation process is required which includes comparative assessments with other similar places in other parts of the world. Only those areas that are found to have outstanding universal value can be listed. This process has not commenced for the Kimberley and the Australian Government has not taken any decision to do so.
