This is from the ABC interview Feb 18. I do hope that Keith Pitt sticks to his sentiments.The below comment from this interview gives me the slightest bit of confidence.


KEITH PITT: Well, the decisions that I make are one ones which are based firstly on the advice from the regulator, which in this case is NOPTA. Secondly, on ensuring that the regulations that we have in place are obviously complied with. But in this country, if you are a company that wishes to operate, to develop, to do other activities, and you meet the criteria, well then there's a fair expectation that you are approved. So we will consider all of the elements that are included in the regulation, that are included in the advice from NOPTA that are included, of course, from the joint authority with Mr Barilaro. And obviously, I've been having discussions with, not only my colleagues, but others, around this exploration permit.
