Public Works Committee: Seaview High School Redevelopment

Mr CREGAN (Kavel) (11:23): I move:

That the 63rd report of the committee for the Fifty-Fourth Parliament, entitled Seaview High School Redevelopment Project, be noted.

Mr Speaker, as you would be aware, Seaview High School is located on Seacombe Road, Seacombe Heights, in the City of Marion. The school was allocated funding of $16.175 million as part of the Department for Education's capital works program. The high school has ageing accommodation, and the proposed redevelopment will provide new and more efficient facilities for the school community.

The proposed redevelopment will provide the required capacity for the expected increase in school enrolments, which includes the transition of year 7 students to high school in 2022. The scope of the Seaview High School redevelopment project includes the construction of a new multipurpose performing arts building, as well as new creative design facilities. The redevelopment will also include refurbishment of existing buildings and the demolition of aged facilities at the school site, as earlier foreshadowed. The redevelopment project will be staged, with construction expected to be completed by November 2021.

The committee in the course of its business examined written evidence from the Department for Education in relation to the project, advising that the appropriate consultation in relation to the project had been undertaken. The committee is satisfied that the proposal has been subject to the appropriate agency consultation and meets the criteria for the examination of projects set out in the Parliamentary Committees Act 1991.

In accordance with the form of the report that we give to this place, based on the evidence considered, and pursuant to section 12C of the Parliamentary Committees Act 1991, the Public Works Committee reports to parliament that it recommends the scope of proposed public works.

Motion carried.
