Tobacco—Illegal supply
549. Mr Basil Zempilas to
the Premier:
I have a
supplementary question. Why is it that the government is prioritising matters
like a racetrack at Burswood Park—
The Speaker: Leader of the Opposition, supplementaries
do not have preambles to them. Ask the question.
Mr Basil Zempilas: Why is the Premier not prioritising
tougher laws to combat illegal tobacco, vaping and organised crime?

AnswerView source ↗

Mr Speaker, the member's
question is completely without warrant in relation to its premise, and I simply
reject it.
