I thank the
honourable member for some notice of the question.
(1)–(2) Transperth
train patronage figures for each line are published in the Public Transport
Authority's annual reports and on the Public Transport Authority
website. To further assist the member, I table a media statement, ''Public transport patronage bouncing back in WA'',
dated 18 December 2022. I think that media statement includes the
figures the member wants, but if it does not and the reference to a website is
a problem, I will get that tabled for the member.
