[38] The Hon. D. Vale, Letter to the Turkish Minister for Environment and Forests, 2 August 2004 in section titled 'Proposed improvements to ANZAC Commemorative site at Gallipoli Peninsula Peace Park'. There appears to be some confusion as to whether these sites constitute 'work on ANZAC Cove road'. See the question of Senator Mark Bishop to Senator the Hon. Robert Hill, Senate Hansard, 10 May 2005, p.18. The map in Chapter 1 shows that these sites are on the coastal road, but not strictly on the ANZAC Cove Road.
