QuestionView source ↗

I refer to a letter which I understand is dated August 7 2002 reference 3575/1899V2 and 2746/974V2 (Job No. 022245) signed by T Thomson, Team Leader, South East Region, Land Administration Services from the Department of Land Administration (DOLA) titled ‘Proposed Kalgoorlie-Boulder Tourist Railway Loopline to Hannan Street’ -
(1) Is it correct that part of this letter states ‘The purpose of this plan is to show the proposal in relation to the bypass and intersecting roads and for stakeholders to further consider the proposal in relation to issues that need to be addressed’?
(2) If no to (1), what does the letter state?
(3) Will the Minister table a copy of the concept plan showing the proposed railway corridor 10 metres wide and suggested route which is to terminate in the general area of Hannan Street?
(4) If no to (3), why not?
(5) Can the Minister state what DOLA considers are the specific issues that need to be addressed?
(6) If no to (5), why not?
