WESTPORT — DEVELOPERS
818. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Premier:
I
refer to the recent Westport announcement to replace the port of Fremantle as
it reaches its projected capacity in 2040 and the redevelopment of much
of the land comprising the current Fremantle port. Can the Premier confirm that
no developers with a vested interest in the Westport project and associated
redevelopments have attended his WA Labor business round tables?

I do not think that relates to my
portfolio —
The SPEAKER : No.
Mr R.H. COOK : — but
the answer is that I have not spoken to any property developers about any
redevelopment of Fremantle port.
The SPEAKER : I will caution
you, Leader of the Opposition. I do not think your first question was in order
because it did not pertain to the Premier's portfolio areas, nor did it
pertain to policy matters for the party of which he is the leader. If you
believe your supplementary question is in order, you may ask it. Otherwise, we
will move on to the next question.
