Co-Ordinator General passes the EIS BUT..................

The Co-Ordinator General has "ticked off" the EIS for Aquis and the Deputy Premier is crying tears of joy and had this to say:

Deputy Premier Seeney
Deputy Premier and Minister for State Development, Infrastructure and Planning Jeff Seeney welcomed the approval and said the government remained committed to seeing the development go ahead.
“The Queensland Government continues to work with Aquis to make this exciting proposal a reality and today’s approval of the project’s EIS is another step in that process,” he said.
“This proposed resort has the potential to create more than 20,000 new jobs for the Cairns region and provide a major boost for North Queensland and the state’s tourism and construction industry.

This fellow has been pushing this project even though there were investigations going on and he should have been sitting in the corner and keeping quiet but no, not good old Jeff and why is he so keen to have project proceed even though the Commissioner David Ford has said there a some serious concerns yet Seeney continues the push, why hasn't the Premier told him to keep quiet until all investigations are complete.

The EIS can be viewed at this link:  http://www.dsdip.qld.gov.au/  the EIS also contains some conditions that need to be adhered to.
Again I don't believe Tony Fung is really interested in this project now as the probity delves deeper into his past, again the comments by the High Court judge in the Hong Kong High Court stated:


These comments should be ringing alarm bells in the pollies heads but no, not even Cairns Councillors can see that, GOOGLE the web before it's too late and you pay for it at the polls.
It has been said that the Deputy Premier said on TV last night "that there are casinos (not known) that are looking at licences and that the Gold Coast and Far North Queensland are very doubtful in getting a licence".
I personally don't have a problem with progress but this project is outrageous to the extreme and now that the Federal Government have trade agreement with China they will allow Chinese workers in especially to work on Chinese project.
Don't worry about the 417 regulation that can be changed at the stroke of a pen especially now China has the trade agreement.
I say let's get Australian projects going and employ Australian workers and keep the money within
Australia.
Wouldn't that be great.
