(a-f) I refer the Member to Premiers Circular 2008/13 entitled "Use of WA State Government badge by public sector agencies" which explains the operation of the new policy. The central aim of the policy is to approach the replacement of items bearing the common badge from a cost conscious perspective with existing stocks depleted before re-ordering and other items replaced as and when required.
