Wind farms and electricity pylons

Summary

Senators clarify remarks about living near wind farms and pylons and call for the full context to be considered in consultations.

I would also like to hear a debate on wind farms. Senator Sean Barrett referred to a comment by Mr. Eddie O'Connor that he would not like to live beside a wind farm. Mr. O'Connor added, however, that he would not mind living 500 m from a wind farm.

Comment on this

He was referring to pylons rather than wind farms.
