FUNERAL ASSISTANCE — BALGA PENSIONER
As a supplementary question, will the Premier agree to meet with Ilona and her family today, make an assessment and review the government’s heartless decision to not support them? Mr C.J. BARNETT

AnswerView source ↗

I do not know the lady. If she wishes to meet with either me or the minister responsible, Hon Robyn McSweeney, that will be arranged. To the best of my knowledge, she has not made contact with my office. If she does so, I will be happy to meet with her and make sure that her issue is dealt with properly.
