The less we import the safer our environment and if we have the resources here we should be using local.

Importing rock would be a devastating blow to Norfolk Islands ecosystem, especially without thorough sterilization. The financial comparison to utilizing already available quality rock and contract services available on isle, should be enough to dismiss this decision alone.

Totally ridiculous idea, Australia should but out and let the Norfolk Islanders run their own affairs.

This is another example of bureaucrats making decisions where their they have little to no experience or knowledge. The impacts of these decisions will far outlive their self indulgent ambitions as they try to climb the political ladder
