The Priory, Gladesville Hospital

I am informed by the Mayor of Hunter's Hill Council, that NSW Health has offered to sell to Council for the sum of $4.5 million The Priory, a historic building located in Gladesville and classified as an item of State Heritage Significance. I understand that Council does not have the available resources to purchase an asset that is already owned by the people of New South Wales.

I know that it is my duty to keep you informed of my will on anything that comes before Parliament, or that should come before Parliament.

2. explain what the benefit would be to the State of New South Wales if Hunter's Hill Council were to pay the Government for the Asset using funds raised from taxes levied on local residents;
3. explain how the proposed sale of The Priory to Hunter's Hill Council would not amount to an additional tax on the people of Hunter's Hill (considering that expenses of the Council are met by taxes levied against local residents);
4. inform me of any proposal in relation to the sale or long term lease of The Priory; and
5. inform me of the results of your actions to ensure The Priory remains in public ownership, is made available for public access and is maintained by the State Government with an appropriate level of funding.

Port Hastings Development – Notification of My Will

I know that it is my duty to keep you informed of my will on anything that comes before Parliament, or that should come before Parliament.

Recently I have reviewed the documents made available for public comment by the Port of Hastings Corporation. From chapter 6 Potential Freight Task of these documents it is possible to extract the following figures:

Planned Capacity for 2035

• 2.3 shipping movements per day (page 45)
• 15 shipping berths (page 51)
• 3,700,000 containers per year (page 51 : International + Bass trade)
• 640,000 import/export vehicles per year (page 51)
• 2,500,000 tones of petroleum exports/imports (page 51)
• 1,900,000 tones of dry bulk per year (page 51)
• 3,410 trucks per day (page 52)
• 40 freight trains of 1.2km length per day (page 52)

Planned Capacity for the Long Term

• 6.5 shipping movements per day (page 45)
• 24 ships berths (extrapolated from page 51)
• 8,200,000 containers per annum (page 44 : International + Bass trade)
• 9,630 trucks per day (extrapolated from page 52)
• 113 freight trains of 1.2km length per day (extrapolated from page 52)

Figure 15.6 on page 255 of Section D Recommended Port Land Use and Transport Strategic Study shows a 15 berth dock. A comparison with figure 15.1 shows that this clearly this does not reconcile with the planned longer term capacity and requirement to accommodate an addition 9 berths or 3.15km of dock (refer chapter 6 Potential Freight Task page 44). Rather, this would require doubling the length of dock shown in figure 15.6. It would also appear to require extensive destruction of Western Port and acquisition of considerably more land than declared. (copies of these figures are attached for your reference).

The impact of such development on the region would include:

• The extensive long term of destruction of Western Port bay to:
  • construct 24 shipping berths.
  • handle 6.5 ships per day (they need 0.5km to turn around).
• The noise impact of the train and truck transport.
• The pollution impact of the train and truck transport.
• The impact of the truck transport on Melbourne’s road system (93% of the transport will be to the north and west – chapter 6 Potential Freight Task page 45).
• The impact of the freight traffic volumes on the Peninsula area.
• The visual impact on the landscape.
• The light pollution from the facility at night.
• The impact on residents in the Western Port area.
• The impact on the Bayside area suburbs of the increased traffic volumes.

IT IS MY WILL that you take immediate and ongoing action to ensure that with respect to any aspects associated with the development of Port Hastings that you:

1. engage with the Victorian electorate, and principally the electorates in the vicinity of Port Hastings, to ensure that all citizens are all fully informed of the extent of planned developments and the full extent of the environmental and financial impact on the area;
2. you determine the will of the people with respect to the development of Port Hastings and obtain a clear mandate from the people for this extensive redevelopment;
3. you determine the full extent of the environmental impact of the proposed long term development of Port Hastings and obtain a clear mandate from the people for their acceptance of the environmental impact;
4. you determine a comprehensive and just financial compensation plan for all Victorians impacted by this proposed development should it proceed, including those on the freight corridors;
5. you report all of the Governments findings to the Victorian people via the Parliament to provide a record in Hansard.

As I have complied with my obligation to inform you of my will on this matter it is expected that you advise me of your personal action in representing me in accordance with your Oath of Loyalty in accordance with the Australian Constitution.

I am one of her Majesty's respectful Subjects, God Save the Queen.

Yours faithfully,
