Queensland’s Deputy Premier and Planning Minister Steven Miles has given notice he may intervene in the assessment process for Clive Palmer’s Waratah Coal power proposal. 

Currently under local government process there is no legal requirement for the company to notify the public, however Mr Miles has given notice of a proposed call-in which will give the public more control of the decision making process.

Now it is expected the multi-billion dollar coal power proposal will seek government and local approval.
