Yamba Port and Northern River Development discussed with Barnaby Joyce at Lismore BC

Mr Des Euen, CEO Australian Infrastructure Developments asked Barnaby Joyce and other National Party members would they be supporting the multi-billion dollar Yamba Port Regeneration & Expansion: Port Yamba (EASTGATE) NSW. Initially, given there would be no Environmental or Indigenous consultations had no 'red flag's due to the proponents stakeholder engagement process, that was good. Secondly, when Barnaby and other National party local Members asked if the Development would meet the funding and NSW Government Investment Criteria, Mr Joyce told Mr Euen he could see no impediment to it being submitted to relevant government infrastructure, ports, transport and land department for assessment. It was certainly seen as an "Ideas Boom" and innvative solutions to funding and building infrastructure for Northern NSW and Australia given it will link to the Inland Rail.
