Good call from Matt Lauer on access talks

Published: Fri 27 Jul 2018 01:58 PM
Federated Farmers is heartened by Matt Lauer's offer to sit down with interested parties in September to work through the Hunter Valley Station access issues.
Feds president Katie Milne offered her organisation's assistance as a representative of landowners.
"I am confident that with all parties in the room we will be able to find a practical and amicable solution," Katie said.
"All parties realise that unfettered access across Hunter Valley Station is not what is being sought. It is time to take a breather over the winter when access across the Station is not safe anyway, and get around the table in two months’ time to find a way through that everyone can live with."
