QuestionView source ↗
I refer to Minister’s media release of 30 June 2010 headlined ‘State Government’s plan to grow Karratha into a city’, and I ask:
(a) can the Minister outline any initiative in this release that was not already included in the Minister’s joint release with the Premier of 27 November 2009 headlined ‘State Government launches blueprint for Pilbara’; and
(b) how many additional people have settled in Karratha since your bold plan to transform Karratha into a world-class City of the North was announced?
