Planning:
I have a supplementary question.
Given the Department of PlanningXXX ###XXXs report ZZZ### ZZZPerth And [email protected]'' does not describe
this project, the Perth Freight Link, is it not true that the minister does not
support this project and does not believe that it is a priority for Western
Australia?

The ZZZ### ZZZPerth And
[email protected]'' subregional planning framework documents were put out
about three months or so ago and deal primarily with the growth of Perth and
the Peel region; they do not go into great detail in relation to transport
routes, but they do flag a number of transport issues that need to be
considered—importantly, particularly in relation to future public
transport needs. If the member read the document, she would see that. Whether
or not the Perth Freight Link project is referred to in detail in those
documents is really not a material issue. The documents were put out as a draft
and there are comments being received, no doubt, from government agencies,
members of the public, land developers, planning professionals, local
governments and so on prior to the reports being finalised.
