NICHELIVING — HOME CONSTRUCTION DELAYS
657. Hon NICK GOIRAN to the Minister for Commerce:
I refer to the minister's
letter of 5 January 2024 to a distressed constituent who had written in desperation
to the Premier last November regarding the extraordinary delays she has
experienced with Nicheliving.
(1) Is the minister aware that the
contract to build this home was signed in December 2020?
(2) Is the
minister aware that this single mum continues to live in a camper trailer with
her two children, one of whom is trying to study for her year 12 exams?
(3) Is the
minister aware that this constituent continues to pay a mortgage, full strata
fees and council and water rates on the home she cannot live in, while paying
rent for the camper trailer and storage locker fees for furniture?
(4) Is
Nicheliving one of the construction companies that has been offered a substantial
interest-free loan by the Cook Labor government?
(5) Why is no financial assistance
being provided to this constituent?

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1)–(3) I
am acutely aware of the difficult situation a number of Western Australian home
owners are facing due to delays with their building projects with Nicheliving
and its construction arm Projex Management and Construction Pty Ltd, and I have
requested a meeting with the company's directors.
(4)–(5) Questions regarding
the builders' support facility should be directed to the Treasurer.
