Whilst I am a member and employee of Pauline Hanson's One Nation - NSW I make these comments as a private citizen.
I fully support the Newstan Mine Extension Project. The project will create employment opportunities for many local people. It will also support many local businesses.
The use of coal in nearby power stations will ensure reliable base-load power - ensuring that power prices do not rise.
I'm a member of One Nation because it shares my views on energy security, job creations, and local business support that all flow from projects such as Newstan.

To whom it may concern,

Please find attached Five Bays Sustainable Neighbourhood Group's submission to the proposed Newstan Mine Extension project.

Kind regards,
Mark Howells - Secretary

As per submission.

I object to this proposal as it is not in the public interest to continue to drive one of the indisputable causes of climate change by promulgating fossil fuel follies and expanding the industry beyond what the developed world is acknowledging is a tipping point period.

The technology exists to explore and implement alternatives to fossil fuels, if rejecting this proposal means those alternatives are expedited this can only be seen as a positive step to transition our community.

The next generation and beyond is being compromised by a subsidised system that is no longer relevant to humanity. I urge you to reject this proposal and start turning the coal titanic around, otherwise we will all sink.

I endorse the submission compiled by our local Sustainable Neighbourhood Group (attached)
