WORKER
ACCOMMODATION — REGIONS
389. Mr V.A. CATANIA to the Minister for Housing:
I have a supplementary question. The Shire of Exmouth had
already identified a suitable piece of land in February. It has started the
process of a scheme amendment. It has been five months now. Is this a failed
election commitment that was made to the people of Exmouth?
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Member for Wanneroo and Minister for
Environment!

It is the same seriousness that the member for North West Central
showed to Pindan staff! He showed real, genuine concern there! He was more
interested in cheap headlines! That is you—the member for cheap
headlines! That is what you will be remembered for. You put 90 jobs in the
regions at risk. That is your legacy, member. That is what you will be
remembered for.
