PERTH MAJOR SPORTS STADIUM — SUBIACO AND BURSWOOD
I refer to the Premier’s claims on radio today that the new stadium proposed by the Carpenter government at Subiaco would have had car parking under the playing surface. (1) Can the Premier table a document or concept drawing produced prior to September 2008 that supports this claim? (2) In the proposal for a stadium at Burswood considered by the major stadia task force, was there any car parking located under the playing surface? (3) Will a new stadium at Burswood require any special treatments under the playing surface due to the geotechnical conditions of this area? Hon NORMAN MOORE
