Iron ore environmental testing

Summary

Cullen asked whose advice supported leaving the iron ore aboard and whether contrary advice existed. Daly said samples had been analysed and the ore was considered harmless, but he would provide the advice details later.

With regard to the iron ore on board, on whose advice did the Minister base his decision that it was not dangerous to the environment and did he seek a second opinion? Did he get any contrary advice?

I do not have that information here but I will communicate with the Deputy. We took samples from the Kowloon Bridge, had them analysed and were satisfied that the iron ore would not be injurious to the environment.
