QuestionView source ↗
As part of Round 5 of the State Underground Power Program, Attadale North made a submission through the City of Melville which included documented support indicating that over 500 residents and more than 400 homes supported the installation of underground power. It is understood from initial feedback from the City of Melville that Attadale North’s submission was one of 89 submissions and that it was not selected as one of the 20 shortlisted submissions. This is very difficult to understand when, in Round 4, Attadale North was shortlisted and the latest submission demonstrates overwhelming community support and the ability to pay. Could the Minister please provide:
(a) details of the evaluation criteria for evaluating Round 5 submissions for underground power, including both:
(i) technical; and
(ii) non-technical criteria;
(b) details of any weighting applied to the evaluation criteria in (a) above;
(c) details of the scoring system applied to the submissions, including a description for each score value applied;
(d) details of the methodology used in evaluating submissions for underground power in Round 5, including how:
(i) evaluations were conducted;
(ii) submissions were shortlisted; and
(iii) submissions were selected for Round 5 funding;
(e) specifically, in respect to the Attadale North submission, a copy of the evaluation spreadsheets, including scores/weighted scores and any written commentary, and a copy of the comparative statement for the overall evaluation of the 89 submissions; and
(i) if this cannot be provided, please detail:
(A) the reasons why; and
(B) to whom a freedom of information (FOI) submission should be made to seek such information under FOI?
