ASSET SALES — WESTERN POWER
653. Mr M. McGOWAN to the Treasurer:
I have a supplementary question.
Will the government sell Western Power; and, if it is not selling the entirety
of Western Power, is it considering selling up to 49 per cent of Western Power?

AnswerView source ↗

The Leader of the Opposition should
listen. We have said this over and again: we are pursuing the sale of Western
Power. That is what we are doing, and when we are ready to make an
announcement, we will let members and all Western Australians know.
Several members interjected.
The
SPEAKER : That is enough! Sit down, please. Member for Bassendean, I call
you to order for the second time.
