I refer to the Minister's answer to questions outlining that the percentage of funds spent on goods and services supplied outside Western Australia (WA) to deliver the 18 electric buses at Volgren's Malaga facility, as of 21 May 2025, was 69%, and I ask: (a) noting that the Government has expanded its Made in WA branding across multiple projects, what is the government-wide criteria for Made in WA?
