PERTH MAJOR SPORTS STADIUM — SUBIACO AND BURSWOOD
I refer to my question without notice yesterday asking the Premier to table a document or concept drawing that supports his claim that the new stadium proposed by the Carpenter government at Subiaco would have had car parking under the playing surface and the answer referring me to the Major Stadia Taskforce report. (1) Where in the Major Stadia Taskforce report is there any concept drawing or other evidence to support the Premier’s claim? (2) Does the Premier accept it is misleading to refer me to a document that does not contain any evidence to support his claim? Hon Adele Farina : They are not doing it again, are they? Hon KEN TRAVERS : I followed the advice of Hon Wendy Duncan with this question. (3) Does the Premier now accept that there is no evidence to support his claim because his claim is wrong? (4) How does the Premier’s behaviour on this matter comply with his promise before the last election to be open and accountable? (5) Will the Premier now apologise to the people of Western Australia for misleading them on this matter? Hon NORMAN MOORE
