MORLEY POLICE STATION — UPGRADE
303. Hon AMBER-JADE SANDERSON to the
Attorney General representing the Minister for Police:
I refer to the upgrade to the Morley
Police Station as part of the west metropolitan accommodation upgrade program.
(1) Of the $11.7 million
allocated to the program, how much has been allocated to upgrade the Morley
Police Station?
(2) Which police stations has the
government already committed to upgrade as part of the program?
(3) What is the current capacity of
the Morley Police Station?
(4) Is the minister willing to
provide any information on the ''bad tender'' for the program;
and, if so —
(a) what was the
value of the original tender for the program and why was it rejected; and,
(b) what is the
value of the retender for the program and has the new tender process been
finalised?
(5) If the
minister is not willing to provide any information on the ''bad tender''
for the program, why not?

On behalf of the Minister for Police I thank the honourable
member for some notice of this question.
(1) A sum of $2.226 million.
(2) The
Warwick, Mirrabooka, Morley and Scarborough Police Stations, and the west
metropolitan district office relocation and fit-out.
(3) There is capacity to accommodate up to 41 FTE.
(4) Yes.
(a) An adverse
tender result in excess of $1.8 million over the original tender estimate was
received. At that stage, the Department of Finance did not consider this to be
value for money.
(b) Following a
review of the cost plan by the quantity surveyor, the value of the re-tender
was $11.449 million. The tender has been awarded, with staged construction
underway.
(5) Not applicable.
