I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question. (1) (a) Two applications are for works at Barbagallo Raceway—extension of the main office and extension of a garage. Barbagallo Raceway covers Bush Forever areas 444, 428 and 457. The applications do not affect native vegetation in these Bush Forever areas. One application is for the installation of a stormwater pollution trap at an existing drain within Bush Forever area 201. One application is for the construction of a shed within the same lot as Bush Forever area 371. As this is on zoned lands, the local government is the determining agency. The Department of Planning recommended approval of the development application as it does not impact on any native vegetation within Bush Forever area 371. The application goes to council this week for determination. (b) This application is for foreshore revegetation and dune stabilisation works within Bush Forever area 302. This application is pending referral to the Swan Valley Planning Committee. The current status is “outstanding”. (c) The outstanding development application is for a veranda located within the vicinity of Bush Forever area 341. (2) No. (3) Not applicable.
