Boat ramp—Drummond Cove
778. Hon Steve Martin to the parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer to the 2021 election commitment from WA Labor to install a boat ramp at Drummond Cove, an August 2024 constituent mailout from former Labor member for Geraldton Lara Dalton stating that the commitment is being worked on, and comments by the minister in the estimates hearings in July about contention in the community in relation to the project.
(1) What is the status of the project?
(2) When will it be delivered?
(3) Does the government still intend to deliver the commitment?
(4) If no to (3), 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) The state is engaging with the City of Greater Geraldton regarding the preferred option for dune restoration and sand nourishment to confirm a delivery timeframe for erosion management and passive recreation enhancements.
