MINISTER FOR TRANSPORT —
FOI REQUESTS
127. Ms M.J. DAVIES to the Minister for Planning:
I have a supplementary question. I have
the notes here if the minister would like them. Given that the notes were
written one day before the minister issued the call-in —
Mr P. Papalia : What is the
question?
Ms M.J. DAVIES : Does the
member want me to start again?
The SPEAKER : The question is,
Minister for Tourism, I call you to order for the first time.
Ms M.J. DAVIES : I have the
notes right here, minister; I can provide the minister with a copy of them.
Given that the notes were written one day before the minister issued the
call-in notice, can the minister confirm who made the decision to call in the
appeal before the State Administrative Tribunal—Woodside or the
minister?
Mr D.T. Redman interjected.
The SPEAKER : Let us hear the
answer, member for Warren–Blackwood.

I made the decision. I think I have
said that on numerous occasions. If that is the biggest issue that members of
the Nationals WA have today, they are completely disconnected from regional Western
Australia. They do not live in the regions. They do not represent the regions.
I am out there investing —
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Members, please.
I want to hear this.
Ms R. SAFFIOTI : Members of
the Nationals WA keep interjecting, but when I respond to their interjections,
they do not like it. They should stop interjecting. We are investing in
regional WA and spending more on roads than members opposite ever did in their
eight and a half years.
