Question Without Notice No. 968 asked in the Legislative Council on 16 October 2018 by Hon Alison Xamon

Parliament: 40 Session: 1

INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA — RELOCATION

968. Hon ALISON XAMON to the Minister for Education and Training:

I refer to the announced figures for the relocation of the International School of Western Australia, which are $14.6 million for the redevelopment of the Doubleview Primary School site and $3 million to assist the school with relocation and establishment costs. Will the minister please explain how the additional $4 million in the 2017–18 budget for this private school project will be spent?

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

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

The allocated budget for the relocation of the International School of Western Australia is $21.6 million. The estimated cost of the redevelopment of the former Doubleview Primary School and additional secondary facilities is $18.6 million. There is $3 million allocated to assist the school with relocation and establishment costs.

The $14.6 million quoted refers to only the construction cost, as reported in the development application considered by the Metro North-West Joint Development Assessment Panel in February 2018. The additional $4 million provides for the planning; design; building fees, Building Act 2011 compliance and Building and Construction Industry Training Fund Levy; project management; transportable relocations; and construction contingency allowance.
