I thank the honourable member for
some notice of this question.
(1) Appendix 2
represents the value of contracts that have been awarded to businesses located
in Western Australia. It is based on the geographical location of the
successful bidder.
(2) It is the
total value of the contract.
(3) The
information is gathered from publicly available sources at the time of the
award announcement, which does not provide further breakdown of the actual
proportion of Western Australian value added.
