As Minister for Local Government, I make sure my
local governments implement the Local Government Act 1995. That is exactly what I am doing. I understand
there is a fair bit of public dialogue out there, but the department is doing
its work, and I am confident we can get to the bottom of it soon. But, what is
more important, let us make sure we get this right.
Mr
D.A. Templeman interjected.
The SPEAKER : Member for Mandurah, I call you to order for the first time.
