PERTH STADIUM — PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE — FABRICATION CONTRACT 316. Mr F.M. LOGAN to the Minister for Transport: I refer to the recent media expose of the decision by the minister’s government to send the fabrication of the steelwork for the Swan River stadium bridge contract to Malaysia. (1) Why has the minister refused to tell the truth about sending the steelwork overseas, after being asked eight times about this by the opposition in Parliament? (2) When was the decision made to send the fabricated steel contract offshore? (3) What is the difference in price between the Malaysian contract and the nearest local fabrication tender? (4) Why has the minister’s government consistently failed to support local companies in government purchasing contracts? Mr D.C. NALDER

(1)–(4) I will not get into a debate about how many times, and I would struggle to remember eight. There were a lot of times when the question was asked and no contract was finalised, so there was not a response that we could make. But I will say that on the pedestrian bridge, there is a quantity of steel that will be fabricated offshore. If we look at the whole stadium — Mr M. McGowan interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : I am going to come back to what the Leader of the Opposition is putting out in the media on this. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : If we look at the steel that exists in the stadium precinct, we are talking about 14 000 tonnes of steel in that vicinity. I think that something like 90 per cent of it, if we take that whole precinct, is being fabricated in Australia. They are starting to isolate it down to a specific situation with regard to the pedestrian bridge. There are some elements of it that cannot be fabricated here. There is steel tubing that needs to be sourced overseas. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Leader of the Opposition, member for Willagee and member for Cockburn, let the minister answer. Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about a quantity of steel that will come from Malaysia. Ninety per cent — Mr P. Papalia interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro, I call you to order for the first time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Ninety per cent of that precinct is being made in Australia. I cast people’s memory back to the floating dock that was going to be made in—was it Vietnam? A government member: Vietnam. Mr D.C. NALDER : It was to be made up in Vietnam, under the previous Labor government. So, is it not a little hypocritical that members opposite turn around, when 60 per cent of the steel in that project was going to be fabricated overseas? This is where the hypocrisy sits. Now we turn to the Leader of the Opposition. He said that if he became Premier, he would ensure that this does not happen; it will happen here in Australia. We have $2 billion worth of trade with Malaysia. The building of this pedestrian bridge is being funded by the royalties from the iron ore that we are selling into Asian countries, and we are purchasing a little bit of steel back. The second largest industry in Western Australia is the agricultural industry, and 80 per cent of the produce — Mr J.R. Quigley interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Butler, I call you to order for the first time. Mr P. Papalia interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro! Mr D.C. NALDER : Eighty per cent of everything we produce in the agriculture sector is exported. It is comments like the Leader of the Opposition makes — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn, I call you to order for the first time. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Okay; I call you to order for the second time. Mr D.C. NALDER : It is comments like the Leader of the Opposition makes—who wants to be a future Premier but does not understand the importance of our relations with overseas countries — Mr B.S. Wyatt interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Victoria Park! Mr D.C. NALDER : He wants to be a future Premier, and he threatens bilateral trade with countries that we deal with. It is a disgrace. Ninety per cent of — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro, member for Victoria Park, member for West Swan and member for Swan Hills! Mr D.C. NALDER : Our relationships with Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia are extremely important. Mr B.S. Wyatt interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Victoria Park, I call you to order for the third time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Local jobs are important—local jobs are extremely important. Ninety per cent of the steel in that stadium, as I keep reiterating, is being fabricated in Australia. We see jobs as extremely important. That is why infrastructure projects such as Gateway saw over $500 million go out to over 600 small businesses in the Perth metropolitan area. That is why we talk about infrastructure, and that is why we are talking about developing real jobs — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : — not a plan that is full of motherhood statements and does not deliver anything for Western Australia. We are very proud of the record of what we are delivering in infrastructure across Western Australia for Western Australians.

NALDER : Our relationships with Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia are extremely important. Mr B.S. Wyatt interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Victoria Park, I call you to order for the third time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Local jobs are important—local jobs are extremely important. Ninety per cent of the steel in that stadium, as I keep reiterating, is being fabricated in Australia. We see jobs as extremely important. That is why infrastructure projects such as Gateway saw over $500 million go out to over 600 small businesses in the Perth metropolitan area. That is why we talk about infrastructure, and that is why we are talking about developing real jobs — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : — not a plan that is full of motherhood statements and does not deliver anything for Western Australia. We are very proud of the record of what we are delivering in infrastructure across Western Australia for Western Australians.
Mr D.C. NALDER replied: (1)–(4) I will not get into a debate about how many times, and I would struggle to remember eight. There were a lot of times when the question was asked and no contract was finalised, so there was not a response that we could make. But I will say that on the pedestrian bridge, there is a quantity of steel that will be fabricated offshore. If we look at the whole stadium — Mr M. McGowan interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : I am going to come back to what the Leader of the Opposition is putting out in the media on this. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : If we look at the steel that exists in the stadium precinct, we are talking about 14 000 tonnes of steel in that vicinity. I think that something like 90 per cent of it, if we take that whole precinct, is being fabricated in Australia. They are starting to isolate it down to a specific situation with regard to the pedestrian bridge. There are some elements of it that cannot be fabricated here. There is steel tubing that needs to be sourced overseas. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Leader of the Opposition, member for Willagee and member for Cockburn, let the minister answer. Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about a quantity of steel that will come from Malaysia. Ninety per cent — Mr P. Papalia interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro, I call you to order for the first time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Ninety per cent of that precinct is being made in Australia. I cast people’s memory back to the floating dock that was going to be made in—was it Vietnam? A government member: Vietnam. Mr D.C. NALDER : It was to be made up in Vietnam, under the previous Labor government. So, is it not a little hypocritical that members opposite turn around, when 60 per cent of the steel in that project was going to be fabricated overseas? This is where the hypocrisy sits. Now we turn to the Leader of the Opposition. He said that if he became Premier, he would ensure that this does not happen; it will happen here in Australia. We have $2 billion worth of trade with Malaysia. The building of this pedestrian bridge is being funded by the royalties from the iron ore that we are selling into Asian countries, and we are purchasing a little bit of steel back.

We have $2 billion worth of trade with Malaysia. The building of this pedestrian bridge is being funded by the royalties from the iron ore that we are selling into Asian countries, and we are purchasing a little bit of steel back.

Now we turn to the Leader of the Opposition. He said that if he became Premier, he would ensure that this does not happen; it will happen here in Australia. We have $2 billion worth of trade with Malaysia.

316. Mr F.M. LOGAN to the Minister for Transport: I refer to the recent media expose of the decision by the minister’s government to send the fabrication of the steelwork for the Swan River stadium bridge contract to Malaysia. (1) Why has the minister refused to tell the truth about sending the steelwork overseas, after being asked eight times about this by the opposition in Parliament? (2) When was the decision made to send the fabricated steel contract offshore? (3) What is the difference in price between the Malaysian contract and the nearest local fabrication tender? (4) Why has the minister’s government consistently failed to support local companies in government purchasing contracts? Mr D.C. NALDER replied: (1)–(4) I will not get into a debate about how many times, and I would struggle to remember eight. There were a lot of times when the question was asked and no contract was finalised, so there was not a response that we could make. But I will say that on the pedestrian bridge, there is a quantity of steel that will be fabricated offshore. If we look at the whole stadium — Mr M. McGowan interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : I am going to come back to what the Leader of the Opposition is putting out in the media on this. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : If we look at the steel that exists in the stadium precinct, we are talking about 14 000 tonnes of steel in that vicinity. I think that something like 90 per cent of it, if we take that whole precinct, is being fabricated in Australia. They are starting to isolate it down to a specific situation with regard to the pedestrian bridge. There are some elements of it that cannot be fabricated here. There is steel tubing that needs to be sourced overseas. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Leader of the Opposition, member for Willagee and member for Cockburn, let the minister answer. Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about a quantity of steel that will come from Malaysia. Ninety per cent — Mr P. Papalia interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro, I call you to order for the first time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Ninety per cent of that precinct is being made in Australia. I cast people’s memory back to the floating dock that was going to be made in—was it Vietnam? A government member: Vietnam. Mr D.C. NALDER : It was to be made up in Vietnam, under the previous Labor government. So, is it not a little hypocritical that members opposite turn around, when 60 per cent of the steel in that project was going to be fabricated overseas? This is where the hypocrisy sits. Now we turn to the Leader of the Opposition. He said that if he became Premier, he would ensure that this does not happen; it will happen here in Australia. We have $2 billion worth of trade with Malaysia. The building of this pedestrian bridge is being funded by the royalties from the iron ore that we are selling into Asian countries, and we are purchasing a little bit of steel back. The second largest industry in Western Australia is the agricultural industry, and 80 per cent of the produce — Mr J.R. Quigley interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Butler, I call you to order for the first time. Mr P. Papalia interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro! Mr D.C. NALDER : Eighty per cent of everything we produce in the agriculture sector is exported. It is comments like the Leader of the Opposition makes — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn, I call you to order for the first time. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Okay; I call you to order for the second time. Mr D.C. NALDER : It is comments like the Leader of the Opposition makes—who wants to be a future Premier but does not understand the importance of our relations with overseas countries — Mr B.S. Wyatt interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Victoria Park! Mr D.C. NALDER : He wants to be a future Premier, and he threatens bilateral trade with countries that we deal with. It is a disgrace. Ninety per cent of — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro, member for Victoria Park, member for West Swan and member for Swan Hills! Mr D.C. NALDER : Our relationships with Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia are extremely important. Mr B.S. Wyatt interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Victoria Park, I call you to order for the third time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Local jobs are important—local jobs are extremely important. Ninety per cent of the steel in that stadium, as I keep reiterating, is being fabricated in Australia. We see jobs as extremely important. That is why infrastructure projects such as Gateway saw over $500 million go out to over 600 small businesses in the Perth metropolitan area. That is why we talk about infrastructure, and that is why we are talking about developing real jobs — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : — not a plan that is full of motherhood statements and does not deliver anything for Western Australia. We are very proud of the record of what we are delivering in infrastructure across Western Australia for Western Australians.
I refer to the recent media expose of the decision by the minister’s government to send the fabrication of the steelwork for the Swan River stadium bridge contract to Malaysia. (1) Why has the minister refused to tell the truth about sending the steelwork overseas, after being asked eight times about this by the opposition in Parliament? (2) When was the decision made to send the fabricated steel contract offshore? (3) What is the difference in price between the Malaysian contract and the nearest local fabrication tender? (4) Why has the minister’s government consistently failed to support local companies in government purchasing contracts? Mr D.C. NALDER replied: (1)–(4) I will not get into a debate about how many times, and I would struggle to remember eight. There were a lot of times when the question was asked and no contract was finalised, so there was not a response that we could make. But I will say that on the pedestrian bridge, there is a quantity of steel that will be fabricated offshore. If we look at the whole stadium — Mr M. McGowan interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : I am going to come back to what the Leader of the Opposition is putting out in the media on this. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : If we look at the steel that exists in the stadium precinct, we are talking about 14 000 tonnes of steel in that vicinity. I think that something like 90 per cent of it, if we take that whole precinct, is being fabricated in Australia. They are starting to isolate it down to a specific situation with regard to the pedestrian bridge. There are some elements of it that cannot be fabricated here. There is steel tubing that needs to be sourced overseas. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Leader of the Opposition, member for Willagee and member for Cockburn, let the minister answer. Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about a quantity of steel that will come from Malaysia.

We have $2 billion worth of trade with Malaysia. The building of this pedestrian bridge is being funded by the royalties from the iron ore that we are selling into Asian countries, and we are purchasing a little bit of steel back. The second largest industry in Western Australia is the agricultural industry, and 80 per cent of the produce — Mr J.R. Quigley interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Butler, I call you to order for the first time. Mr P. Papalia interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro! Mr D.C. NALDER : Eighty per cent of everything we produce in the agriculture sector is exported. It is comments like the Leader of the Opposition makes — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn, I call you to order for the first time. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Okay; I call you to order for the second time. Mr D.C. NALDER : It is comments like the Leader of the Opposition makes—who wants to be a future Premier but does not understand the importance of our relations with overseas countries — Mr B.S. Wyatt interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Victoria Park! Mr D.C. NALDER : He wants to be a future Premier, and he threatens bilateral trade with countries that we deal with. It is a disgrace. Ninety per cent of — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro, member for Victoria Park, member for West Swan and member for Swan Hills! Mr D.C. NALDER : Our relationships with Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia are extremely important. Mr B.S. Wyatt interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Victoria Park, I call you to order for the third time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Local jobs are important—local jobs are extremely important. Ninety per cent of the steel in that stadium, as I keep reiterating, is being fabricated in Australia. We see jobs as extremely important. That is why infrastructure projects such as Gateway saw over $500 million go out to over 600 small businesses in the Perth metropolitan area. That is why we talk about infrastructure, and that is why we are talking about developing real jobs — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : — not a plan that is full of motherhood statements and does not deliver anything for Western Australia. We are very proud of the record of what we are delivering in infrastructure across Western Australia for Western Australians.
Mr M. McGowan interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : I am going to come back to what the Leader of the Opposition is putting out in the media on this. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr D.C. NALDER : If we look at the steel that exists in the stadium precinct, we are talking about 14 000 tonnes of steel in that vicinity. I think that something like 90 per cent of it, if we take that whole precinct, is being fabricated in Australia. They are starting to isolate it down to a specific situation with regard to the pedestrian bridge. There are some elements of it that cannot be fabricated here. There is steel tubing that needs to be sourced overseas. Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about — Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Leader of the Opposition, member for Willagee and member for Cockburn, let the minister answer. Mr D.C. NALDER : We are talking about a quantity of steel that will come from Malaysia. Ninety per cent — Mr P. Papalia interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro, I call you to order for the first time. Mr D.C. NALDER : Ninety per cent of that precinct is being made in Australia. I cast people’s memory back to the floating dock that was going to be made in—was it Vietnam? A government member: Vietnam. Mr D.C. NALDER : It was to be made up in Vietnam, under the previous Labor government. So, is it not a little hypocritical that members opposite turn around, when 60 per cent of the steel in that project was going to be fabricated overseas? This is where the hypocrisy sits.

Mr D.C. NALDER : Ninety per cent of that precinct is being made in Australia. I cast people’s memory back to the floating dock that was going to be made in—was it Vietnam? A government member: Vietnam. Mr D.C. NALDER : It was to be made up in Vietnam, under the previous Labor government. So, is it not a little hypocritical that members opposite turn around, when 60 per cent of the steel in that project was going to be fabricated overseas? This is where the hypocrisy sits. Now we turn to the Leader of the Opposition. He said that if he became Premier, he would ensure that this does not happen; it will happen here in Australia. We have $2 billion worth of trade with Malaysia. The building of this pedestrian bridge is being funded by the royalties from the iron ore that we are selling into Asian countries, and we are purchasing a little bit of steel back.

That is why we talk about infrastructure, and that is why we are talking about developing real jobs — Mr F.M. Logan interjected. The SPEAKER : Member for Cockburn! Mr D.C.
