HYDROGEN INDUSTRY
831. Dr D.J. HONEY to the Minister for State Development,
Jobs and Trade:
I
have a supplementary question. When is the minister going to stop with the
meaningless platitudes and plans with no substance and start providing
meaningful regulatory certainty —
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Order, please!
Dr D.J. HONEY : — and
the critical infrastructure of power, roads, water and industrial estates in
the midwest and the north of the state?

Madam Speaker, speaking of
substance —
Ms J.J. Shaw interjected.
The SPEAKER : Member for Swan
Hills!
Mr R.H. COOK : We will take
a lot of advice from a lot of people in relation to economic infrastructure,
particularly energy. We will not be taking that advice from the member
for Cottesloe. We will continue to work with everyone involved to ensure that
we provide the very best investment environment for these organisations. They
are excited about the future of Western Australia. It is unfortunate that the
Liberal Party and the opposition are not as excited and continue to talk
everything down.
