I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) The amount of
$0.5 million is set aside each year from the Department of Education's
building maintenance program to install perimeter security fencing at schools
that exhibit the highest levels of wilful damage.
(2)–(3) The
table—which I will table—shows expenditure against the
perimeter security fencing program for each year between June 2008 and June
2012.
The perimeter security fencing
program for 2012–13 includes Maddington Primary School, completed, $81 714;
Wanneroo Senior High School, in progress; East Wanneroo Primary School, in
progress; Cyril Jackson Senior Campus, in progress; Phoenix Primary School, in
progress; Darling Range Sports College, in progress. As I said, I table the
document.
