HOUSING — INDUSTRY SAFETY STANDARD
634. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Premier:
I have a supplementary question. Why
is it that your government as a whole seems more intent on protecting union
bosses than workers in vital industries?

I would have hoped that the member
with his supplementary question would have actually told me what the question
was about. I simply reiterate —
Mr R.S. Love interjected.
Mr R.H. COOK : I know, but the member could at least
have mentioned the name of the program so I know what the member is talking
about.
Several members interjected.
Mr R.H. COOK : I literally do not know what the program
is. The member did not mention it by name. I cannot infer from the question
what the hell the member is talking about. I simply reiterate, and I will not
take up any more of this precious question time, that my government works with
industry, whether that is employers, or whether it is our investors or
representatives of our workers. We will always do what is right for Western Australia.
