Shenhua coalmine unearths Nationals’ lack of leadership on land usage
by Gabrielle Chan from on (#EFKF)
While Barnaby Joyce has been vociferous in his opposition to the Shenhua mine, the Nationals leader, Warren Truss, has not uttered a word
It has been more than a week since the environment minister, Greg Hunt, agreed to give the tick of approval to the $1.2bn Shenhua open-cut coalmine in the heart of Barnaby Joyce's New England electorate.
It now goes back for the final approval stages to the NSW Baird government.
