TRANSPERTH
— ANZ
911. Hon SUE ELLERY to the parliamentary
secretary representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer to the deleveraging options
presented to the Minister for Transport and the Treasurer by the ANZ last year,
including ones to sell the ownership of Transperth assets.
(1) Who first approached the ANZ for
deleveraging options?
(2) How much did the ANZ analysis
cost?
(3) Have any of
the options presented by the ANZ been endorsed by the Minister for Transport or
the Minister for Finance; and, if so, which ones?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of this question.
(1)–(3) The
ANZ approached the government to discuss a range of high-level ideas, none of
which have been endorsed by the Minister for Transport. The ANZ was not paid
for its advice.
