PERTH MINT — 2020 INTERNAL AUDIT REPORT
499. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Minister for Mines and Petroleum:
I have a supplementary question.
Given that the Perth Mint is to remain a public asset and that taxpayers are
its guarantors, will the minister act in the
interest of transparency for Western Australia's taxpayers and table
that report?
The SPEAKER : That was another
question with a preamble, then an ''and'', then another bit and then
the final part, which should have just been
the question: will you table the report? That is what is required for a supplementary question—just a brief question.

We
are acting on behalf of WA taxpayers by retaining the 125-year-old Perth Mint,
which not only helps the gold sector, but is also a wonderful employer
