Burswood Park motorplex

598. Hon Michelle Hofmannto theparliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Transport:

I refer to the Burswood Park motorplex and associated project works.

(1) Has the proposal been referred to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act 1986?

(2) If yes to (1), when does the government expect the referral to be assessed?

(3) If no to (1), when will the government refer the proposal to the EPA?

Hon Samantha Rowe replied:

The member's question was redirected, but I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question and provide the following answer on behalf of the Minister for Transport.

(1)–(3) The Perth entertainment and sporting precinct is not a motorplex. The project proposal will be referred to the EPA in coming weeks.
