Mr Northe highlighted the challenges being experienced by the energy and resources, agriculture and timber industries and how poor Government policy and activist groups can impact these sectors.
Mr Northe also encouraged the State Government to implement some of his policy initiatives that in turn would create local employment and ensure local contractors have the opportunity to participate in Government related projects.
