Waratah Coal lodged application to overturn recommendation that lease and approvals be refused

Clive Palmer’s Waratah Coal has launched an appeal against a ruling that its plans to dig Australia’s largest thermal coalmine in Queensland would infringe on the human rights of future generations.Clive Palmer’s Waratah Coal has launched an appeal against a ruling that its plans to dig Australia’s largest thermal coalmine in Queensland would infringe on the human rights of future generations.

“A lot of people in the coalmining industry are concerned that this will be a precedent for future operations that will be detrimental to international investment in the coal industry in Queensland and create a lot of unemployment,” he said. Waratah’s solicitor, Brendan Tobin, will argue Kingham’s decision-making was littered with errors of law, went well beyond the jurisdiction of her court and was an improper exercise of power.In a 41-page application for a statutory order of review to quash Kingham’s ruling, Tobin argued the land court president “acted unreasonably in taking into account the impacts of climate change in a hypothetical future world”.

Waratah will also challenge Kingham decisions regarding intergenerational equity, her concern that the company’s forecast economic contribution of the mine was optimistic and may result in tax benefits being retained overseas, as well as those regarding a raft of on the ground impacts such as noise, air pollution and subsidence.

never wished a coronary on anyone before

Clive and Gina are the best reasons for nationalizing the mining industry.

He's a real life Jabba the Hutt.

Research this coal mine. If it proceeds palmer will be worth triple his current net worth. That's why he created UAP, ran I'm every seat and gave preferences to lnp. Lnp immediately fast tracked approvals after 2019 election. Democracy is a farce

Bjelke-Petersen foot rest says what auspol

Either a greedy b*st*rd who doesn't give a toss about future generations or a pig ignorant climate change denialist. Greedy or ignorant? Which is it with Clive?

Clive is a cockwomble

Clive Palmer is a piece of 💩 (in my opinion)

oh! has he woken from the election doldrums 😂?

He never lets up

Clive needs to go on a healthy diet.

And his Fraud / Corporate Greed case again adjourned, now out to Feb ‘23. We’ll get there eventually…

he can do what he wants . money money money . but wa told him to fvk off . he cant buy anyone one in this gov . like his failed attempt to get the balance of power ,he will take his bat and ball and go home . he wont fund babbet . at least thats good

Habe a go in the higher Courts, Clive, but make sure your legal invoices are paid promptly.

Where is a grassy knoll when u need one in connection to this guy 🙄🙄🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
