(1)-(3) I met with the mayor and the chief executive officer last week and we discussed a number of matters, including liquor licensing, in what was a very cordial meeting. We had very fruitful and productive discussions. A number of matters were discussed and I was very grateful to have the opportunity to meet with both gentlemen. Over the coming months, I will have further discussions with them about a variety of matters that are of interest to the specific constituents of the municipality of Fremantle. I am looking forward to some positive outcomes and I am very confident that the City of Fremantle will see positive outcomes as a result of our very cordial discussions.
