HORSERACING — BAN
1264. Hon WILSON TUCKER to the parliamentary secretary
representing the Minister for Racing and Gaming:
I ask this question on behalf of a constituent.
Last
year, 15 horses were killed on WA racetracks, with eight of those deaths
occurring at Ascot. Will the government finally realise enough is enough
and legislate a ban on horseracing?
