Proposed Muckaty nuclear waste dump no benefit to traditional owners

takver — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 13:26:51 +0000

The Government has admitted that only 6 jobs will be created by the Nuclear Waste dump on Muckaty Station, and none of them are likely to go to traditional people. "This puts to rest the myth that somehow this waste dump will create benefits for Aboriginal people or the wider Tennant Creek community," said Senator Scott Ludlam, Greens spokesperson on nuclear issues.
