I refer to the difficulty the Constitutional Affairs Committee had, when examining the Leighton marshalling yards redevelopment, obtaining an answer from the minister about the nature of the contractual obligation between the Leighton Shores consortium and Westrail, and the difficulty experienced by journalists from The West Australian in the same matter, and ask – (1) Will the minister now provide the House with a clear description of the nature of the arrangements between Westrail and the Leighton Shores consortium; and if not, why not? (2) Is the minister in a position to table at some early point the agreement between the Government and the proponent? Hon M.J. CRIDDLE
