(1)–(3)
It is the role of the Western Australian Planning Commission to initiate an
amendment to the metropolitan region scheme. I understand that that matter is
in hand; it is being considered at the moment and liaison is occurring between
the Department of Planning and the Department of Transport and Main Roads in
relation to the necessary MRS amendment.
