I draw the minister’s attention to the Labor Party policy “Labor’s plan for fisheries”. Hon Kim Chance : An excellent policy! Hon BRUCE DONALDSON : I am trying to find that out. I ask - (1) Where is the additional funding for Recfishwest, the Volunteer Fisheries Liaison Officers campaign, the Fishers with Disabilities Association and the WA Fish Foundation being sourced if no additional funds are being provided in this policy? (2) What will be the cost of establishing the additional two-person mobile fisheries patrol for the metropolitan area; and, where will those funds be sourced from? Hon JON FORD
