SOUTH FREMANTLE POWER STATION — EXPRESSIONS OF
INTEREST
296. Dr D.J. HONEY to the Minister for Energy:
I have a supplementary question.
Given that it is such a short time frame for the expressions of interest
process for such a complex site, does this mean that there will be other
proponents who will be excluded?

I would suggest to the member that
if any of his friends want to buy this property, he should get them to put a bid
in. This is a well-known site. It has been vacant for 36 years. To the south is
the Port Coogee development, which, of course, has been through a lot of
controversy over the years. To the north is the South Beach development, which,
again, had its own challenges in the development process. This is a well-known
site. The City of Cockburn has frequently discussed the need to redevelop the
site. As I say, go to the DevelopmentWA website; there is a rendering of a possible
use for the site. A number of the television broadcasts last night had a series
of renderings because other people have made proposals. This is a very
well-known site. The sophisticated investors, who have the capacity to bid for
this project, will be able to respond to the expressions of interest window—it
is not a bid window; it is an EOI process—because they know what they
are doing.

The SPEAKER : I will now
acknowledge the student leadership team from Poseidon Primary School, who I understand
are guests of the member for Joondalup.
