Parliament: 40 Session: 1

FREMANTLE TRAFFIC BRIDGE — BUSINESS CASE

396. Hon PETER COLLIER to the minister representing the Minister for Transport:

I refer to the media release dated 22 April 2019 announcing funding for a new Fremantle Traffic Bridge.

(1) Was a business case prepared for this project prior to the government committing funding; and, if not, why not?

(2) If yes to (1), will the minister table a copy of the business case; and, if not, why not?

(3) Has any documentation been provided to Infrastructure Australia in support of the new Fremantle Traffic Bridge?

(4) If yes to (4), will the minister provide a list of the documents that have been provided to Infrastructure Australia; and, if not, why not?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

I thank the Leader of the Opposition for some notice of the question.

(1) Yes.

(2) Submissions made through the Infrastructure Australia process can be tabled in due course.

(3) Yes.

(4) Submissions were provided by the McGowan government through the Infrastructure Australia process, which resulted in the project being listed as a national priority on its annual infrastructure priority list. These include documents such as stage 1 Infrastructure Australia submissions and supplementary information.
