Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 829 asked in the Legislative Council on 26 October 2021 by Hon Colin De Grussa

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

WESTPORT FUTURE PORT RECOMMENDATIONS —CONTAINER COMPOUND ANNUAL GROWTH RATES

829. Hon COLIN de GRUSSA to the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Ports:

I refer to the answer to question on notice 250 asked by me on 19 August 2021.

(1) Can the minister confirm there is formal modelling regarding the forward projected container-based truck movements on the restricted access vehicle 4 freight route for the individual years from 2020–21 to 2029–30?

(2) If yes to (1), can the minister please explain why this modelling was not tabled as part of the answer to question on notice 250, asked on 19 August 2021?

(3) Will the minister now table the modelling; and, if not, why not?

(4) If no to (1), why has no formal modelling been undertaken; will any formal government modelling be undertaken; and, if yes, by what date will this be completed?

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

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

(1)–(4) As mentioned in reply to the member's previous question, the Westport office is continuing to develop updated long-term container trade forecasts. Following this process, further refinement of truck and rail movement assumptions will be undertaken.
