of the question.
(1) Twenty-six
Mather Drive, Neerabup or lot 40 on diagram 78186, is currently held in
freehold by the Electricity Networks Corporation.

works.

that the honourable member will be leaving this place later this week, I will
ensure it is passed on to the Minister for Energy to see whether an answer can
be provided to him in good time.
