Ms O’CONNOR question to MINISTER for PARKS, Mr DUIGAN
Have you been advised by your agency of any other potential breaches in relation to the dumping of diseased salmon waste on any other Crown or reserved land for which you have responsibility?
ANSWER
Mr President, again, I am not going to engage on that basis because this is an open investigation being run by the EPA and that is the appropriate place for those questions.
Ms O’Connor – That was not the question.
The full amount of florfenicol used by the salmon industry last summer has finally been revealed, with confirmation a massive 5.3 tonnes was dumped into Tasmanian waterways.
The EPA has refused to commit to additional transparency measures if florfenicol continues to be used in public waterways by salmon companies.
Noting previous debates in this place about the conduct of Mark Shelton MP, since 1 January 2023, has any taxpayer funding been provided to Mark Shelton MP for legal costs?
