Question Without Notice No. 844 asked in the Legislative Council on 26 October 2021 by Hon Peter Collier

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

ARMADALE COURTHOUSE AND POLICE COMPLEX

844. Hon PETER COLLIER to the minister representing the Minister for Police:

I refer the minister to the media release on 31 March 2020 of the former Minister for Police, Hon Michelle Roberts, and Attorney General, Hon John Quigley, titled ''Foundations laid for new Armadale Courthouse and Police Complex''. In particular, I refer to the first sentence in the release, which states —

In a major milestone for the McGowan Government, the first major concrete pour has today taken place at the new Armadale Courthouse and Police Complex.

(1) Has the Armadale Courthouse and Police Complex been completed?

(2) If no to (1), what is the proposed completion date of the complex?

(3) Where in the 2021–22 budget is there a line item for the complex?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. The question I have says ''13 March 2020'' but the honourable member said ''31 March''; nonetheless, I have an answer. The following information has been provided to me by the Minister for Police.

The Western Australia Police Force advises —

(1)–(2) The construction of the Armadale Courthouse and Police Complex is well underway, with practical completion anticipated in 2022.

(3) It is on page 417 of volume 2 of budget paper No 2 of the Western Australia State Budget 2021–22 under ''Works in Progress'', ''Land and Buildings Infrastructure'' and the line item ''Armadale Courthouse and Police Complex''.
