STATE BUDGET 2023–24 — METRONET
457. Hon TJORN SIBMA to the Leader of the House representing
the Minister for Transport:
Given the McGowan government's
failure to invest in a specialist cancer centre due to the limitations in its
capital works program, will the minister rule out any further budget increases
for the Metronet program of works in the coming state budget?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
Questions about the WA
Comprehensive Cancer Centre should be directed to the Minister for Health.
The McGowan Labor government is
committed to the delivery of Metronet, which is transforming the way people get
around our suburbs, reducing congestion and creating thousands of jobs.
