Question from K. Collins to be answered by Lead Advisory Service NSW Elizabeth OBrien stated at a public Liaison Meeting on 26/8/98 at Lake Macquarie City Council that her child had been diagnosed with lead poisoning! Does she have a personal vendetta with the lead problem and a vendetta for solving the problem in this community? Question from D. West to be answered by Rhetorical Prime TV or other media seem to want to print negative attitudes instead of listening to people that have positive good news items. A photographer from the Post Newspaper was invited to a presentation of the Cubby House and Nintendo prizes for the Round 11 blood testing program but of course no one showed. So may be its about time the media people started doing research into their stories instead of letting selective people have all the say and leaving all the local community out in the dark. The local people are the ones that should be having the say the Vote Send the so called Groups back to Sydney and let them clean up their own backyards. Question from K. Collins to be included in the Agenda Item for next meeting Because the meetings are time limited, not everybody gets the chance to express their opinions on the issues that need to be discussed. Could the meeting go for two and half-hours. Reason: by the time departments or agencies decide on minutes from previous meetings 75% of the meeting time has gone. Question from K. Collins to be answered by Kate Hayter Mrs. Hayter says that she has had threatening calls, rape calls, food thrown at her and been assaulted have all of these been reported to the police or neighbourhood watch?

Was she not told about the lead problem? Question from D. West to be answered by Kate Hayter Did Mrs. Hayter know there was a 149 notation on her property? Was she notified by Lake Macquarie City Council or her solicitor about his hazard? If not why? You should have been notified by your legal representative on the 149 notation. Question from D. West to be answered by Kate Hayter What does Mrs. Hayter want from the Remediation Management Committee and Why? Question from D. West to be answered by Lead Advisory Service NSW What do the Lead Advisory Service NSW actually do? Question from D. West to be answered by Lead Advisory Service NSW Does the Lead Advisory Service NSW refer people to the Environmental Health Centre in Boolaroo? If not, Why? Question from D. West to be answered by Theresa Gordon No-Lead Who does Theresa Gordon represent? Is it No-Lead? Who is No-Lead? Is it community people or selective people? Question from D. West to be answered by Theresa Gordon No-Lead Why does Theresa Gordon get involved in the lead problem in North Lake Macquarie when she is believed to live at Merewether? Question from R.

I thought that the meeting on Wednesday night (26/8/98) was to talk about the lead problem and how to clean it up, not to bash Pasminco like most of the non-residents did. |
