AnswerView source ↗
I could not have asked a better question myself. I am in
regular dialogue with members of the National Party about all aspects of law
and order and all matters to do with policing in regional areas. Obviously, the
members of the National Party hold policing in their local precincts as a high
priority.
Mr M.P. Murray interjected.
The SPEAKER :
Member for Collie–Preston, have you finished?
Mrs L.M. HARVEY :
The members of the National Party regularly communicate with me about areas of
policing and law and order, which are a very high priority in regional areas,
as they are in metropolitan electorates. I am in very close discussion with the
Minister for Regional Development on the implementation of our regional
incentives package. I will work with the minister as part of the budget process
to ensure that we deliver that as a priority, as we will deliver all our
election commitments around policing.
