Roz Hansen, author of the Metro Strategy defending her position.
Most of us have made it crystal clear that we don't agree with her vision for Melbourne and now we have to make sure that we are listened to. We will get another chance to comment on the next round, but we want to make sure that the next document has changed according to our wishes.

News re the Supreme Court Judgement on Bastion Point versus Madden
The judgement of Friends of Mallacoota vs Minister for Planning and Anor was handed down on 27 May 2010 by Justice Osborn at the Supreme Court of Victoria.
Whilst the outcome was not in our favour, we feel we won a moral victory on numerous grounds. The Justice found that there was no evidence that the Panel's assessment was other than a careful, fair and balanced evaluation.

Minister Madden Interferes Again - this time it's a Wind Farm
The proposed Yaloak wind farm has already been subject to a planning panel and the panel recommended against it in order to protect Wedge-tailed Eagles.
The then Minister for Planning accepted the panel report but later, in an interview on Stateline, encouraged a new submission suggesting there may be a different outcome.
