Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 1206 asked in the Legislative Council on 22 November 2022 by Hon Tjorn Sibma

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

PERTH AND PEEL STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT

1206. Hon TJORN SIBMA to the minister representing the Minister for Environment:

I refer to the development of the strategic assessment of the Perth and Peel regions.

(1) Are the principles of the SAPPR being applied by either of the minister's environment agencies in the course of assessing development proposals?

(2) If yes to (1), how?

(3) If no to (1), can the minister table the SAPPR?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. The following answer has been provided on behalf of the Minister for Environment.

(1)–(3) Assessments are conducted with consideration for the principles and objectives of the relevant legislation. Consideration of the future of the SAPPR was deferred in March 2020 to allow the state government to focus all efforts on responding to COVID-19. A decision on the SAPPR will be made in due course.
