Jarrah tree—Death
197. Hon Dr Brad Pettittto theparliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer to the recent and sudden death of a significant 400-year-old jarrah tree in Churchlands bushland, next to Newman College.
(1) Is the minister aware of the recent and highly localised death of this significant jarrah tree?
(2) Has the department done any soil or other testing to determine the death of the tree?
(3) If yes to (2), can the minister please table the results?
(4) If not, why not?
Hon Samantha Rowe replied:
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question and provide the following answer on behalf of the Minister for Transport.
(1)–(4) Main Roads will undertake an inspection of the tree.
