Kongwak Butter Factory

 Renee HEATH (Eastern Victoria) presented a petition bearing 1165 signatures:

The Petition of certain citizens of the State of Victoria draws to the attention of the Legislative Council:

The extensive $36 million development of the Kongwak Butter Factory under the Victorian Government’s fast-track, Development Facilitation Program which has already generated substantial local opposition in the hamlet of Kongwak and over 4,100 signatures against the proposal on change.org

The Petitioners therefore request that the Legislative Council ask the Victorian Government to:

a) refer the permit application to the Department of Transport and Planning’s Priority Projects Standing Committee for further detailed consideration before a decision is made by the Minister for Planning, and

b) conduct public consultation meetings with those residents that live within the township boundary of the hamlet who will be most affected, and modify the development in accordance with that feedback.

Renee HEATH: I move:

That the petition be taken into consideration on the next day of meeting.

Motion agreed to.
