City Limits - Save Westernport Success!

Wednesday, 31 March 2021 - 9:00am to 10:00am

This week, Zeb, Kevin and Meg discuss the latest news from the world of capitalism unionism and environmentalism, before being joined by Julia Stockigt from the Save Westernport community campaign.

Save Westernport were celebrating their success in opposing an off-shore gas processing facility in the pristine and precious waters of Westernport Bay. This Ramsar-listed wetland was under threat from developer AGL, but after 6,000 public submissions and a 10 weeks public hearing by the Inquiry and Advisory Committee (IAC), the Minister for Planning Richard Wynne rejected the proposal. City Limits congratulates these committed community activists and their allies within Environment Victoria and the council for their historic win.
