Fingers cross they keep their promises and there is no flip-flop since the last election.
This is apparently the email sent to mine opponents last time
http://yplandowners.com.au/labour-liberal-same-same/ "EMAIL on behalf of Mr Steven Marshall
Thank you for your email regarding the proposed Rex Minerals’ Hillside development near Ardrossan on Yorke Peninsula.
The State Liberals support economic growth, employment opportunities and investment in South Australia, particularly in our regions.
Local Member for Goyder, Steven Griffiths MP, has vigorously represented the views of his constituents in the State Parliament and the SA Liberal Party room. We recognise that the Rex project is not unanimously supported amongst the local community, with strong opinions for and against. It is important however, that a State Government acts in the best interests of all South Australians. In our opinion that means encouraging investment in mining while ensuring the environment is protected, the community has been thoroughly consulted and that the overall outcome of the project is to the benefit of the local region and beyond.
If elected to government at the 15 March State Election, a Marshall Liberal Government will as a matter of principle support mining. We will insist that mining projects comply with the Mining Act 1971 and we will demand that the strictest of environmental standards are adhered to. Of particular concern is the need to preserve our water resources, coastal environments, visual amenity and to ensure that adjoining land remains available for agricultural use. Provided that rigorous environmental standards are applied, we will support the development of mines in SA because it is good for jobs, families and small business. Mining jobs are generally high paid and encourage workers to gain new skills and qualifications. This is exactly what our children and grandchildren seek."
