I move:

That—

(1) The Senate notes that:

(a) on six previous occasions the Government has refused to release the business case and cost-benefit analysis for the $1.9 billion Perth Freight Link on the grounds that it would prejudice relations between the Commonwealth and the states; and

(b) given the resounding defeat of the Barnett Liberal government in Western Australia and the change of government on 11 March 2017, this ground is no longer applicable.

(2) There be laid on the table by the Minister for Finance, by no later than 2 pm on 29 March 2017, the full un-redacted business case and cost-benefit analysis for the Perth Freight Link.

Question agreed to.
