UPPER Lachlan Shire Council has received a reply to a letter asking the Minister for the Environment and Water Resources, Malcolm Turnbull, to continue the push for a National Code for winfarms. In his letter Mr Turnbull has stated that after careful consideration he has decided to proceed in developing a national code through a ministerial working group and will announce details of its membership and the process to be followed after he has finished arrangements.
Mr Turnbull stated: "The code will seek to provide a better framework, including for consultation with communities by wind project developers, which will help individuals, communities and stakeholder groups contribute in a well informed and meaningful way to decisions about siting and development of windfarms across Australia."
