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.]

Due to the significant scale of the
McGowan government's investment in infrastructure throughout Western Australia,
it is not possible to provide a time frame for individual projects in the
limited time provided. Questions about specific projects should be put on
notice.
