It would probably be more appropriate to direct this question to the Minister for Housing and Works. I refer the minister to the $180 000 Wagyl painting commissioned by the Government for the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre. (1) Who were the panel members involved in the selection process? (2) Who selected the panel members? (3) Why will the Government not release the unsuccessful proposals? (4) Why was this process not undertaken by the Department of Culture and the Arts? (5) Did the department obtain any advice on the monetary value of such work? (6) Will Chris Pease be paid the sum of $180 000 for the work? (7) Would the sum of $180 000 have been paid irrespective of which applicant had been selected? (8) How was the figure of $180 000 determined? Hon KIM CHANCE

On behalf of the minister, I thank the Leader of the Opposition for some notice of this question. (1) The panel members were Mr John Savell, Department of Housing and Works, chairperson; Dr Ian McLean, faculty of architecture and fine arts, University of Western Australia; Nicolle Jenkins, Communications Manager, Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre; Debra Miller, independent indigenous art representative; Fernando Faugno, architect of the Cox Group, which is the architect of the project; and Pip Sawyer of 3 Dimensional Design. (2) The Department of Housing and Works’ project manager, John Savell, selected the panel in consultation with the Department of Culture and the Arts. (3) The Department of Housing and Works has made the concepts available to The West Australian ; however, it advised The West Australian that to satisfy copyright, it should seek the approval of the respective artists prior to publication since six of the seven artists requested that the department not release their concept. (4) The Department of Housing and Works is responsible for the procurement of the subject art in accordance with long-established practice. (5) The figure was determined in March 2002 by the Department of Housing and Works’ then project manager, Mr Bart Boelen, based on the department’s experience in procuring art in public places. The selection committee agreed with the figure. The figure was specified in the project brief, which I now table. [See paper No 2033.] (6)-(7) Yes. (8) See answer to (5).
