WA Premier Roger Cook said the lay-offs were not a reflection of the state's environmental approvals process, with the slow approvals Santos had mentioned referring only to federal projects.

"There's no Santos project that is in the ... stream of environmental approvals at the moment," he told parliament, responding to a question on the issue from leader of the Opposition Shane Love.

"In fact we have already announced we will be moving forward with green and red-tape reform to make sure we do get these sorts of projects coming into Western Australia.

"The job cuts are part of their decommissioning cycle of older assets, and even though they may want to make some sort of statement about the general disagreement they have, particularly with their Barossa Project, well then so be it.

"But they are not reflecting on the Western Australian Government's program and they are not reflecting on any Western Australian projects."

Depends on what media channel you watch you get two different stories lol. An election is coming up, Roger trying to distance himself from any bad press. Mark McGowan used the exact same script before the last election regarding speeding up approvals and nothing has improved.
