I personally supect you have hit on what may be the reason for the delay in releasing the Deloitte report, Greasemonkies. Shame. It is possible they, some politicians, are holding it back & may even be trying to get parts rewritten because it endorses a rail line over a trucking road as the major infrastructure into the ROF. With the apparent disdain certain people show for KWG and the company's endeavours, such an endorsement would be unwelcome.

Since politicians habitually break promises and change direction, there has to be something behind this hankering for the CLF trucking road that we (or I anyway) are missing.

In regard to the appeal of the recent decision allowing CLF to build a road over KWG claims without permission, and according to evidence presented, exactly along the line surveyed by KWG with drill samples for their own infrastructure, this can only have been the result of a very cursory review. I can understand an order allowing CLF to build across KWG claims with adequate compensation, but surely the claim owner's priority in use of the surface of claims must still remain as a part of our law? If there was no physical reason to keep infrastructure to a very narrow line along the claims, as would be the case in most other places, this might be regarded as a reasonable decision. However, as it stands, I can't see KWG's appeal failing.
