Mr Murphy
asked the Minister for Transport and Regional Services, upon notice, on 11 October 2000:
(1) Is he able to say whether the Government will make a decision this year in relation to the site of Sydney's second airport.
(2) Is he able to confirm media reports that say the Government is proposing to abandon the second airport site at Badgerys Creek.
(3) Will he confirm whether these media reports are accurate.
(4) If a second airport is not built, in light of forecast traffic movements is he able to say at what date demand at Sydney Airport will exceed its aircraft movements capacity.
Mr Anderson (Deputy Prime Minister)
—The answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:
(1) The Government is currently considering the complex issues linked to Sydney's future airport needs and expects to announce a final decision before the end of this year.
(2) and (3) The Government has made no decision which would involve abandoning the airport site at Badgerys Creek.
(4) It has been estimated that aircraft movements at Sydney Airport will approximate the number of available slots through the morning peak in 2006 or 2007. Growth in passenger demand to and from Sydney could be accommodated beyond this time if airlines were to make changes to current aircraft types, schedules or route structures.
