GERALDTON PORT
I refer to the minister’s reported comment on ABC regional radio on 6 February that the government may look at compensating companies that have suffered financial loss due to delays at the Geraldton port. (1) By what means is the government identifying and assessing — (a) the number of businesses affected; and (b) the amount of financial loss suffered by each? (2) When will this assessment be completed? (3) If the assessment is already completed, what was the nature and the cost of each loss? (4) When will compensation be paid? Hon ADELE FARINA

I again advise members that the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure is unable to provide any answers to questions without notice today because she had to evacuate Dumas House. She was unable to provide answers within the prescribed time owing to the fire at Dumas House.
