Text
I thank the Member for her supplementary question. It took a while to get the EIP agreed, but I am a runner and I do marathons. What you do is train harder and work hard at it. That is what I do with my Executive colleagues, and that is how we get progress in this place as part of a power-sharing Executive. I share the Member's concerns about Mobuoy. I visited the site last year, and it is concerning to see what occurred there. I have received a submission from officials about a consultation on the remediation options for Mobuoy. I have agreed that we should proceed with that. It will start in spring. It is important that people feed into the consultation and give us their views about that. It is important that we move to that next stage on this important issue.
