Mr President - Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich :  He has already asked about six questions! Hon Ken Travers :  It’s the only work he does in his shadow portfolio, so give him a break. Hon BARRY HOUSE :  The minister reckons that I do not do anything, because I do not have a web site. The PRESIDENT: Hon Barry House has the call, so he should ask the question. Hon BARRY HOUSE :  I ask - (1) Which schools will receive an upgrade to art and craft and music facilities in 2005-06? (2) If Churchlands Senior High School, which is a specialist music school, is not one of those schools, is an upgrade planned for that school during the current term of the government? (3) If not, why not? Hon LJILJANNA RAVLICH

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member for some notice of this question. (1) Coolbellup Community School and Manjimup Primary School will receive upgrades.  The replacement school at Denham will also be provided with art and craft facilities. (2)-(3) Due to other competing demands, no provision for this has been made in the Department of Education and Training’s forward estimates.  Under Labor’s $1 billion plan for new and better schools, $300 million has been allocated for upgrades over the next four years.  Decisions on expenditure will be made in each school year.
