The Commonwealth government's $1.2 billion funding commitment to the Perth Freight Link is specific to this project and follows detailed planning work and a positive assessment of the business case by Infrastructure Australia. If the McGowan government decides to seek funding from the Commonwealth for other projects, it is welcome to apply through the usual channels. Under well-established government policy, any project requiring more than $100 million in Commonwealth funding will first need to be assessed by Infrastructure Australia.

Question agreed to.
