just a thought..

In my mind the cutbacks at se may help but with gaining approvals.
The number of people that will be out of work due to the job cuts may not be huge in the grand sceeme of things but compared to the population of the coast percentage wise I imagine it will he a rather hefty increase in unemployment.
One would think that all these coal miners looking for work with btu afew approvals away from getting started would give the govt the kick up the arse it needs to get things moving along quicker.
People needing jobs, Bathurst creating jobs, I dare say it would absorb a fair few of the redundant workers.

I wonder if anyone has put it together yet?
