A fee for community objections
A serious power imbalance between mining companies and the public interest in WA.

"Proposal to charge hundreds of dollars to challenge WA mining activities 'anti-democratic', opponents say'"

"It's a David and Goliath issue, and just completely undemocratic that members of the public, as individuals or community groups, [would be] charged with what is basically a community right to protest."

"WA Forest Alliance's Jess Beckerling said objecting to mining applications was already time consuming and complex for them, and the "exorbitant" fee would be "unacceptable. This is clearly designed to stop people objecting to mining applications."
