MINISTER FOR AGRICULTURE
AND FOOD — PERFORMANCE
465. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Premier:
I have a supplementary question. How
much longer is the Premier going to allow the tired Minister for Agriculture and
Food to hold onto her role when farm lobby groups have expressed —
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Order, please!
This is for the Premier to answer, not another 50 members to answer. We will
wait and then we will start the supplementary again.
Mr R.S. LOVE : Thank you,
Speaker.
How much longer can the Premier's
agriculture minister hang on when she has already announced that she is not
staying after 2025 and the farm lobby groups have expressed a lack of
confidence in her?
Ms C.M. Rowe : Low!
The SPEAKER : Member for
Belmont, that was quite uncalled for. Premier.

It
is a very low quality opposition. It is the lowest quality I have seen in my 25
years in the Parliament. People without imagination, without ability,
without energy, without work ethic and without much brainpower—that is
the reality of the opposition today.
