ARTIFICIAL
REEF — CARNARVON
339. Mr V.A. CATANIA to the Minister for Fisheries:
I have a supplementary question.
Will the minister commit to funding the delivery of an artificial reef for the
local community, noting the inflated construction costs, if the current modules
cannot be used?

AnswerView source ↗

The member for North West Central
has been in this place far longer than I have—and far longer than he
should have. He swapped a few parties, so I would have thought he would have
some experience of asking parliamentary questions. To stand and ask such a silly
question like that does not breed an answer. No, I will not give any
consideration to anything at this point and I will wait to see the recreational
fishing plan from Recfishwest.
