DAYCARE FACILITY - HOPETOUN

I thank the member for some notice of the question. The Western Australian government has contributed $18 million for infrastructure to support development in the Hopetoun and Ravensthorpe area. The Department for Communities has commenced negotiations with other state government agencies, the Australian government and the YMCA Perth, with a view to exploring funding options.
