Mr Corbell: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) The following information has been obtained from the Dangerous Substances Premises Register from ACT WorkCover.

There are 17 Eureka Operation/Coles Express sites in the following suburbs:

Wanniassa Tuggeranong

Phillip Manuka

Higgins Hawker

Fyshwick (Wiluna Street) Fyshwick (Corner Wollongong & Newcastle Streets)

Dickson Deakin

Curtin Charnwood

Campbell Braddon

Belconnen Canberra Gateway (Federal Highway)

Belconnen Town Centre 

There are six Woolworths Limited sites and one Caltex Woolworths in the following suburbs:

Gungahlin Mawson

Lanyon Tuggeranong

Dickson Belconnen

Hume 

(2) The Planning and Land Authority has advised that no new sites have been applied for by either Woolworths or Coles Myer.

(3) In 2002, a site was also released by the former Gungahlin Development Authority in Gungahlin for a service station. The lessee has subsequently approached the Government for a direct sale of the adjoining site which has been agreed to by Government.

(4) In 2005, the Land Development Agency released a site through a competitive process in Amaroo for the purposes of a service station.

The site in Gungahlin is currently the subject of a development application. Whilst the owner of the site is not Coles Myer or Woolworths, I understand that petrol provider will be Shell. There has also been a Development Application approved for a Woolworths petrol station in Wanniassa.
