Ms O’CONNOR question to MINISTER for PARKS and ENVIRONMENT, Mr DUIGAN
Ms O’CONNOR – I am glad you proactively raised the trespass issue. Can you confirm that, in terms of land, Halls Island is the only place inside the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area where someone with a valid parks pass could be arrested for trespass if they did not have Daniel Hackett’s approval to be there?
ANSWER
Mr President, I will seek some advice. In my previous answer, I basically set out the process to provide access. It is there publicly listed and that is designed –
Ms O’Connor – Answer the question. If you go to Halls Island with a valid parks pass, can you be arrested for trespass?
Mr PRESIDENT – Order.
Mr DUIGAN – That is a matter for the leasee.
