Port Gregory jetty
514. Hon Rod Caddiesto theparliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer to the sand accumulation around the Port Gregory jetty as mentioned in an ABC report on 3 August 2025.
(1) What steps is the government taking to address the sand accumulation that has landlocked the Port Gregory jetty?
(2) When will the minister fulfill her 2021 promise to visit the site and engage with affected residents?
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)–(2) The government has been monitoring sedimentation along Port Gregory's coastline since 2012. Due to the rapid rate of siltation at Port Gregory, current options available may have impacts on coastal erosion elsewhere.
