North Metro Issues

1683. Hon Alison Xamon to the Minister for Education and Training:

I refer to the approximately 2,800 additional dwellings anticipated to be constructed in the short-to-medium term as part of the Metropolitan Development Authority’s Redevelopment of the Scarborough Beach area, and I ask:

(a) has the authority included this growth in dwellings and population as part of the forecasting for primary and high schools in the area;

HON ALISON XAMON (North Metropolitan) [6.21 pm]: I rise this evening because I would like to say some words following the rally that was held on the steps of Parliament House this morning. There was an eclectic range of groups from across the North Metropolitan Region there, along with speakers from the Melville area.
