I thank the member for some notice
of the question and provide the following answer on behalf of the Minister for
Communities.
(1) The joint
advisory committee membership comprises nominated members from industry, state
government departments, local government, not-for-profit organisations,
community, and philanthropic organisations/investors. The existing committee
includes representation from City of Kwinana, City of Cockburn, Department of
Education, Department of Health, Department of Communities, Department of
Social Services, Woodside Energy Ltd, chair/s of the joint leadership team, Western
Australian Council of Social Service, Child and Adolescent Health Service, and
Ngala.
(2) The joint
advisory committee's existing terms of reference were last endorsed in

completion of this process, Communities will consult with appropriate
stakeholders to determine whether the updated joint advisory committee's
terms of reference will be made public. As Communities is not the custodian or
owner of the terms of reference, members of the committee would need to be
consulted prior to the release of the terms of reference.
