Kimberley gas hub: land rights not compulsory aquisition

Public forum: Kimberley Gas Hub

No compulsory aquisition, Yes to land rights


On September 2 Premier Colin Barnett announced that the government will forcibly acquire land at James Price Point, 60km north of Broome.

Barnett wants to help Woodside Petroleum speed ahead with a multi-billion dollar LNG processing facility. Yet again the WA government is trampling on Aboriginal rights to help a multi-national company make a huge profit.

Come hear about the key issues relating to this project: environmental, legal, the rights of Aboriginal people, trade union & Aboriginal alliances.

Speakers:
Kathy Watson (Nygina & Jabirr descendant)
Steve McCartney (WA State Secretary AMWU)
Kamala Emanuel (Socialist Alliance)
Brooke Anderton (Marine Scientist)
Lara Menkens (The Aboriginal Party, former ALS Lawyer)
Kimberley Land Council representative (invited)

6:30pm, Thurs 28 October

MUA Hall, Kwong Alley, North Fremantle

Organised by Fremantle Socialist Alliance & The Aboriginal Party. Ph Annolies 9433 6946 or Glenn 0432 479 132.
