“PUBLIC TRANSPORT FOR PERTH IN 2031” — MODELLING
I refer to the minister’s answer to question without notice 532, asked last Tuesday. (1) What was the basis for the estimated population of 110 000? (2) Which suburbs were included in the catchment area to produce this estimation? (3) Will the minister table the source documents or information on which this estimation was based; and, if not, why not? (4) Will the minister table the Public Transport Authority report “Outer North-Eastern Corridor Public Transport Strategy–Pre-Feasibility Study” of October 2009; and, if not, why not? Hon SIMON O’BRIEN
