PERTH CONVENTION AND EXHIBITION CENTRE - CONTRACT
I refer the minister to a question on notice asked of the Minister for Housing and Works on 1 May 2007 requesting the tabling of the final Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre contract signed in 2001 by the Labor government, which was transferred to the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure. (1) Will the minister explain when and why responsibility for the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre has been transferred to the planning and infrastructure portfolio as it was dealt with in 2001 by the then Minister for Housing and Works? (2) Will the minister explain why it will take until 15 August for the contract to be tabled? Hon ADELE FARINA

AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1) The Minister for Housing and Works was responsible for matters relating to the construction of the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre. Follow construction, the minister for lands - the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure - as the lessor became responsible for ongoing matters relating to the lease and associated planning issues. (2) I table a copy of the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre Project Agreement Centre and Car Parks between the state of Western Australia acting through the Minister for Housing and Works and the minister for lands, PCEC Centre Pty Ltd, Wyllie PCEC Pty Ltd, Perth CEC Pty Ltd and Multiplex Constructions Pty Ltd dated 12 November 2001. A subsequent variation to it dated 30 June 2004 is not tabled, as that document includes other parties to it and their consent to the tabling of the variation was not able to be obtained prior to tabling. [See paper 2847.]
