YOU OPPORTUNITY TO SAY WHAT YOU DO AND DO NOT LIKE ABOUT THE PROPOSAL.
On Friday 2 March, 2012, Chief Minister Henderson told TOPFM’s Daryl Manzie that there no further public consultation on the Greater Darwin PLan. He said it was because he said there had already been public consultation on it for a year.
