Bullsbrook Ellenbrook Advocate
of 1 December 2010, entitled, ‘$3m plan for mental health issues’ reporting that the ‘Member for Swan Hills Frank Alban wants to act now to combat mental health issues in Ellenbrook with plans to build a $3 million extension to the library to house outlets for community support’, and ask -
(1) Will the Minister confirm whether $3 million has been committed to build an extension to the Ellenbrook library to combat mental health issues as reported on 1 December 2010 in the
