I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) No. For the
information of the honourable member, it is a longstanding and standard
practice that draft local intake areas are not circulated publicly. The final
version is circulated, so I would be concerned if anyone is circulating the
draft ones.
Hon Donna Faragher : I am just
responding to the question the minister answered yesterday.
Hon
SUE ELLERY : Sure. However, the Department of Education can
provide a briefing for the honourable member on the process undertaken
to develop the local intake area.
(2) Discussions
are continuing with the principals of the affected schools. The work is
expected to be completed by the end of September 2019.
(3) The student
accommodation capacity at Woodbridge Primary School is 430; at Guildford Primary
School, 340, including the off-site kindergarten; and at Midvale Primary
School, 480.
