Government seeks
meeting with North Terrace protesters
The State Government is
seeking a meeting with the Aboriginal protesters on North Terrace this afternoon
in an attempt to resolve the situation.
The government and the Adelaide
City Council met this afternoon to clarify the legality of the protesters'
campsite.
Deputy Premier Rob Kerin says while camping on North Terrace
isn't illegal, there are serious safety concerns.
Mr Kerin says he'll ask
the Arabunna people to meet the government and W-M-C Resources to allow them to
air their grievances.
"One of the problems is that no one is
absolutely certain what all the issues are," Mr Kerin
said.
"That seems to be a little bit of a moving feast in some
ways.
"But we'll make every effort to try to get them to table with
Western Mining and work through the issues, but to resolve some of those issues
is enormous."
