Northern Territory Chief Minister Clare Martin and the Country Liberal Party's two representatives in Federal Parliament are remaining tight-lipped about their meeting in Darwin this morning.

Ms Martin discussed the prospect of a national nuclear waste dump being built in the Territory with the Member for Solomon Dave Tollner and Senator Nigel Scullion.

Mr Tollner and Senator Scullion have refused to comment, saying they will not divulge the details of a private meeting with the Chief Minister.

Ms Martin has made no public comment on the waste dump since Friday, when the Northern Land Council castigated the Territory Government for its handling of the issue.
