P2CR. The statutory response time is for an assessment (not approval), irrespective of any implied comments. I am of the opinion that the body language of JP (constant hand wringing, etc.) says more than the words he is speaking.
If there is any solace to be taken, it is that as PW confirmed that we do not yet have finance, he is also confirming that we have not yet taken the self destructive CLN route. PW stated (ref the PEPR) "that doesn't help with concluding funding discussions".
My opinion is that the DEM have assessed the PEPR. This is based purely on the evidence that it was circulated to "Aboriginal Affairs" and noted as "Started" on the 25th March.
