I have a

This is what we get
from the members on the other side: equivocation, stopping, pushing back and negativity.
They do not want progress in this community. They want what they believe in,
which is dithering, a lack of action and a lack of conviction. We are keeping
people safer in this community by rolling out our nation-leading new laws.

The Speaker: Members!
Mr Roger Cook: We are rolling out our nation-leading
new laws when it comes to protecting people in the community. Our electronic
monitoring system is keeping hundreds of people monitored 24/7 in a way that
they never were before. It is monitored 24/7 by corrections officers who are
sitting shoulder to shoulder with police officers who are ready to respond to
any breaches in the electronic monitoring arrangements. That is something of which
we should all be proud because we know that people are safer today because of the
WA Labor government.
