FIREARMS
— SERVICEWA APP
413. Hon LOUISE KINGSTON to the minister representing the
Minister for Police:
I note the minister's comments in the other place
during consideration in detail of the Firearms Bill 2024 in which the minister
explained that the ServiceWA app would be updated with capabilities to manage
digital licences for firearm licence holders.
(1) Is a separate application being developed to monitor
firearm activity or movement?
(2) If so, will this app have point-to-point tracking
capabilities?
(3) What is the status of its development and how much has
been expended to date?

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the
question. The following answer has been provided on behalf of the Minister for
Police.
The Western Australia Police Force advises that due to
operational priorities, it is not possible to provide an answer within the
required time frames. A response will be provided to the honourable member
tomorrow. I owe the member another one, so that will be two answers tomorrow.
