South Road Upgrade

861 Ms STINSON (Badcoe) (15 October 2021). With regards to the South Road upgrade works time line—does the government's commitment to allow landowners until June 2023 to accept an offer from the government and pay no rent to stay in their property thereafter, apply to residents in Clovelly Park and other suburbs too? If not, why not?

The Hon. C.L. WINGARD (Gibson—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing): I have been advised:

Due to the extended period of time between early notification to property owners and when the possession of properties is required, the state government has committed to taking a flexible approach in issuing Notices of Acquisition, which will be served in June 2023 for the owners and tenants in Glandore where requested, as the land is not required until November 2023.

The land at Clovelly Park is required for construction before the Glandore land, therefore all Notices of Acquisition will be served by June 2022.
