Cost-of-living relief—Election commitments
236. Ms Sandra Brewer to
the Premier:
I have a
supplementary question. Does the Premier stand by the member for Fremantle's
comments that families should not worry about the cost of VacSwim because the
beach is free all the time?

AnswerView source ↗

The in-term school
swimming program is free of charge. It is a very important opportunity to continue
to give kids the skills they need to make sure that they can keep themselves
safe when they are in and around the water. These are important policies that
we have put in place to make sure that we are helping West Aussie families and
that our priorities are jobs, health and housing and making sure that this
budget focuses on the things that matter.
