Reason for this Petition
To the Speaker and Member of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory:
This petition of certain residents of the Australian Capital Territory draws to the attention of the Assembly that it is proposed to close the West Belconnen Waste Facility and that no replacement site within Belconnen has been identified by the ACT Government.
Your petitioners therefore request the Assembly to call on the Act Government to:
1. To review the decision to close the current facility,
2. if the facility is to close, then identify an alternative place in Belconnen and
3. ensure that a new facility is operational before the current facility is closed.
