Greenvale electorate
Iwan WALTERS (Greenvale) (15:28): (1651) My question is to the Minister for Environment Mr Erdogan in the other place. Residents across Melbourne’s growth areas, including Greenvale, are increasingly frustrated and angered by the persistent problem of illegal dumping along arterial roads like Somerton Road, especially around Greenvale Reservoir Park and near Woodlands Historic Park. A small number of offenders continue to use our shared spaces as dumping grounds, causing environmental harm and significantly impacting community amenity. Given the Victorian government’s substantial additional investment in the Environment Protection Authority Victoria to strengthen its ability to deter, detect and prosecute illegal dumping offences, what actions are being taken by the EPA to combat illegal dumping in Melbourne’s growth corridors and to hold offenders accountable?
