(a) Copies of the Structural Engineer's reports have been provided to the Mount Lawley Society and the West Australian newspaper.
(b) Yes - Please see [Tabled Paper No.]
(c) No decision has been made concerning the original façade facing Second Avenue. A stakeholder workshop with school and community representatives was held on 23 August 2012 to provide an opportunity for public involvement in the decision-making process. In providing educational facilities at the Mount Lawley Primary School site, the Department of Education will consider the structural reports in conjunction with the school's current and anticipated future needs.
