Constitutional Affairs Committee (1989 - 2001)· 4 November 1992interim_report

This 1992 interim report by the WA Constitutional Affairs Committee investigates links between government agencies and the failed Western Women Group. The inquiry aims to determine if the state bears legal responsibility for investor losses and to recommend legislation preventing similar events. The committee is evaluating evidence from witnesses, written submissions, and subpoenaed documents.

Impact

Investors in the Western Women Group who suffered financial losses, government agencies (WIRE, WAC, SWDA, OWI, etc.), and the R&I Bank are directly affected. The broader public is affected by the potential need for legislative changes and ensuring responsible government practices.
