Where aligned with the State’s interests, the Victorian Government may allocate coal when it is considered appropriate. This would be done in keeping with emerging needs and rigorous approval processes.

"Keep ALCOA operating at all costs" would be a major priority by state government as it is Victorias largest export and vital employment directly and indirectly.

what i like about the article is coal allocation conditions for long term coldry application for local use is in the best interest for Alcoa and LYP ... SIMPLY Cheapest baseload power.

And long term contract assurance such as Simon Crean was willing to endorse with Tincom ,which may re occur if Tincom put money down ,as they have no say in the DFT.

Keep jobs within Australia and creation of new ones for the export market/ hastings development.
