QuestionView source ↗
I refer to question on notice No. 3969, where the Premier referred me to the Broome Marina Working Group. I would accept a briefing from this
group but firstly I seek specific information from the Premier about the
meeting he had with this group on 9 October 2015 in Broome, as it is a matter of
public interest and potentially involves financial and other support from the
State for the project. The matter also has the potential to be highly
contentious in Broome and it is important that details of the meeting are put
on the public record through Hansard, therefore I ask: (a) who was present at the meeting; (b) who was Martin Peirson-Jones representing; (c) what other groups were represented at the meeting; (d) Martin Peirson-Jones was quoted in the media as saying that the Premier supported the concept of a marina in Broome, is this true; (e) were plans for a marina tabled at the meeting; (f) if yes to (e), will the Minister table those plans; (g) if no to (f), why not; (h) was there any discussion about the cost of a marina; (i) if yes to (h), what figures were discussed; (j) did the Premier indicate any level of financial support for a marina; (k) if yes to (j), how much; (l) will the Minister table the notes from this meeting; (m) if no to (l), why not; (n) has the Premier met with anyone else who has discussed a marina in Broome; and (o) if yes to (n), who did he meet with, and when?
