Federal member for Page Kevin Hogan today welcomed comments by NSW Deputy Premier and NSW National Party leader Troy Grant calling for a CSG-Free Northern Rivers.
Mr Grant has told the NSW National Party conference today the seven current Northern Rivers mining licences should be reduced to zero through the Coalition’s buyback scheme.
“I support the view of regional communities and it has been made very clear that the Northern Rivers community does not want CSG,” Mr Grant said.
Mr Hogan, who was the first National’s MP to oppose CSG in the Northern Rivers, has consistently spoken out about the impact CSG would have in his community.
