❓ Question regarding the allocation of $9 million from Western Power's budget for the East Perth power station project, questioning why this funding isn't directed towards upgrading regional power supplies and addressing urgent needs in the south west interconnected system. The Minister defends the allocation by citing Western Power's existing upgrade plans and the potential for further investment through electricity reform.

QuestionView source ↗
Before I ask my question I take this opportunity to acknowledge the staff, students and parents from the Darkan District High School who are in the public gallery. I refer to the Government’s plans to spend $12 million on the East Perth power station. (1) How can the minister justify taking $9 million from Western Power’s budget for the project when the Government will not immediately implement the recommendations of the Energy Safety Directorate to upgrade regional power supplies? (2) Why is that funding not being applied to the areas of most urgent need, such as the south west interconnected system? Mr E.S. RIPPER
AnswerView source ↗
(1)-(2) Western Power has plans to spend $950 million over the next four years on upgrading the transmission and distribution system in the south west interconnected system. I would like Western Power and its successor organisations to spend more than $950 million. If the Parliament endorses the electricity reform package that has been discussed in this House in recent days, it will release money for investment in the network that would otherwise have to be spent on generation. If the member and his colleagues can be persuaded to support electricity reform, we will be able to do something more than the $950 million already suggested. Mr P.D. Omodei interjected. The SPEAKER: Order! I call the member for Warren-Blackwood to order for the second time. Mr E.S. RIPPER: The Government is not the only party that believes something ought to be done about the East Perth power station and that Western Power ought to make a contribution. On radio this week the Leader of the Opposition said - The East Perth power station, obviously the property of Western Power, and Western Power, like any other company, whether it be government-owned or private, has a responsibility to clean the site up, and because it’s a heritage listed building to put it into a presentable state. Western Power has always recognised that the cost would be at least $6 million, perhaps a little bit more. I believe that amount of money would restore the site to an acceptable physical appearance so that it could be protected for the future until a viable use is found. It is not often that I find myself in agreement on energy policy matters with the Leader of the Opposition. I think he has got it right on this matter. The only problem with the Leader of the Opposition’s assertion is that it is a little out of date about the work required to restore the power station to an acceptable minimum standard that will allow it to survive while options are determined for its future use. The cost is higher than $6 million. The Government has taken the contribution from Western Power and added funds from the consolidated fund to preserve a very important heritage building for the future.
