AnswerView source ↗
I thank the Leader of the Opposition
for some notice of the question.
(1)–(2) The
summary project definition plans for the Yanchep rail extension and Thornlie–Cockburn
Link are publicly available documents. I have tabled those previously. If the
member would like me to table them again, I can. Further consideration can be
given to the release of additional documents once the procurement process is
further progressed.
It should be noted that the Leader of
the Opposition will not authorise the release of the project definition plan
for the Forrestfield–Airport Link project, despite the request being
sent twice and despite the project being under construction.
