Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 324 asked in the Legislative Council on 7 April 2022 by Hon Colin De Grussa

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

JURIEN BAY BOAT HARBOUR

324. Hon COLIN de GRUSSA to the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Transport:

I believe this question was redirected from the Premier. I refer to the ongoing environmental issues with the marina at Jurien Bay.

(1) Please detail how much has been spent on this project to date.

(2) Given the project was costed at $7.8 million in 2020, what are the updated costs for the proposal to dredge the marina?

(3) Since the minister has had an engineering solution and a final business case since at least July 2020, when will the residents of and visitors to Jurien Bay finally see this project completed?

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question.

(1) Since 2016, $1.64 million has been spent dredging the Jurien Bay boat harbour.

(2) A typical maintenance dredging campaign costs about $800 000.

(3) The state government will continue to seek funding opportunities for the proposed extension to the harbour's northern breakwater.
