Despite giving an "absolute categorical assurance" prior to the last election that the NT would not be targeted for a Federal radioactive waste dump, in June 2005 the Federal Government announced that three Department of Defence sites in the NT would be assessed for suitability.

Brendan Nelson, as Federal Science Minister, queried "why on earth can't people in the middle of nowhere have [radioactive] waste?" ; Current Science Minister Julie Bishop remarked "all the sites in the NT are well away from houses... some distance from any form of civilisation."

Protecting Community, Country and Culture

Remote areas are not uninhabited and lifeless places. Traditional Owners and community members from the proposed dump sites are travelling across the country to express their concerns of how a radioactive dump would irreversibly damage country and culture.

Mt Everard - 40kms NW of Alice Springs.

3 km from the proposed dump site Werre Therre community runs several business enterprises, including mustering wild horses
