In posting what I did I was trying to give context to the last couple of sentences.....

"However, all the objections can be and should be related to public interest. But private interests as such are not a relevant consideration. So far as they are intended to be protected, they are specifically so protected by the Act itself."

I have always struggled to understand how the private (commerical) interest of Rio was in some equated to the (WA) "public interest". In the last sentence the judge has highlighted that the Act itself offers the protection for private interests - follow the Act and there is nothing to worry about
