SWAN DISTRICT HOSPITAL
SITE
1353. Hon DONNA FARAGHER to the minister representing the
Minister for Lands:
I refer to the former Swan District
Hospital site. Can the minister confirm the government's intent for the
future of this site and does it impact on the application previously lodged
with the City of Swan to rezone the site from public purpose hospital to
special use, residential R60, private clubs and public open space?

AnswerView source ↗

I
thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. I draw the member's
attention to the fact that the question was asked on 11 November, so the answer
is current as at that date. I am aware of some changes since then.
The
former Swan District Hospital site has been committed to the Noongar Boodja
Trust as part of the Noongar land estate under the south west native
title settlement, on the basis that it seeks to deliver an aged-care outcome on
a portion of the site. This does not impact on the application previously
lodged with the City of Swan.
