Question Without Notice No. 716 asked in the Legislative Council on 15 September 2021 by Hon Dr Steve Thomas

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

RECOVERY PLAN — 2021–22 STATE BUDGET

716. Hon Dr STEVE THOMAS to the minister representing the Treasurer:

I refer to the answer to question without notice 693, asked yesterday, 14 September 2021, on the nearly $9 billion budgeted COVID recovery initiatives.

(1) Will the Treasurer please provide a breakdown of the $1.541 billion budgeted for infrastructure spending as a COVID response by project?

(2) Over what time frame will those projects be delivered?

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

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

The main part of the answer to (1) is in tabular form. It lists the projects, the amount and the total infrastructure spend. I seek leave to have the response incorporated into Hansard.

[Leave granted for the following material to be incorporated.]
