I refer to Minister’s media release of 2 February 2011 headlined ‘Proponent selected for high-quality housing in Karratha’, and I ask:
(a) how many of the 80 new homes at Tambray are currently completed ready for occupation by residents;
(b) what value was realised by the State Government for the 5.3 hectare site referred to in the Minister’s announcement;
(c) if any of the housing units referred to in the Minister’s release have been completed, what is the range of sale prices for these dwellings;
(d) if any of the housing units referred to in the Minister’s release have been completed, can the Minister state how many were sold to:
(i) first home buyers;
(ii) owner-occupiers;
(iii) investors resident in Karratha; and
(iv) investors not resident in Karratha; and
(e) when is it is expected that LandCorp and the private consortium are going to be ready to complete their mixed-use Tambrey Neighbourhood Centre, incorporating medium density residential and mixed use development, and what value is expected to be realised to the State Government from this development?
