FOODBANK —
BREAKFAST CLUB, PILBARA
675. Mrs L.M. HARVEY to the Premier:
Why is the Premier refusing to
provide Foodbank with $1.25 million to purchase desperately needed everyday
essentials for people in our community who cannot afford food and funding for
Breakfast Club for hungry children in the Pilbara?

AnswerView source ↗

We have put a lot of support into
Foodbank over the two and a half years we have been in office. I see that the
member for Victoria Park is a regular attendee making announcements and working
cooperatively with Foodbank, and I have been there, too. It does a great job
across Western Australia and the government supports it.
