I refer to the Minister’s announcement on 4 July 2019 that the McGowan Government would not be proceeding with a value capture model for Metronet, and I ask: (a) How will the McGowan Government fund the $267.1 million windfall, as stated in WA Labor’s Metronet policy released during the 2017 March election, given value capture is no longer proceeding?
