Ombudsman Phil Clarke today tabled his report, The Airport Link Project: An Investigation Into Complaints About Night-Time Surface Work, in State Parliament.
Mr Clarke said there were inadequate guidelines for noise on the project, run by Thiess John Holland, and that existing ones were poorly policed amid confusion over which government agency was responsible. Read the full story HERE
