That is a silly question.
Mr D.C. Nalder interjected.
Mr M. McGOWAN : Once again, I urge
the Liberal Party not to the politicise the COVID-19 crisis.
Mr D.C. Nalder interjected.
The SPEAKER : Member for
Bateman, you have had two goes.
Mr M. McGOWAN : Obviously, we
are working very hard to create jobs and we will bring in further measures to
support job creation and job growth in Western Australia—big measures.
It will be interesting to see what the Liberal Party does about that.
