AnswerView source ↗
There was general acceptance that if
appropriate authorisation was not provided by the health department, the water
park would not open, and that was always the case. It was the Premier's
view and it was certainly my view and the Minister for Health's view.
Mr
P. Papalia interjected.
The
SPEAKER : Member for Warnbro!
Mr
J.H.D. DAY : In relation to whatever testing was done, it was according to
the requirements of the Department of Health, as we have debated in here
previously.
