The solution (to erosion at Wamberal) is simple. State and Federal (governments should) back land and knock down the housing. 

Adopt the sensible model of not building on “sacrificial” dunes and return the foreshore to the public. Ratepayers are not going to challenge the might of Mother Nature and consequences of global warming with their hard-earned dollars for the benefit of so few.
