TAX CUTS —
FEDERAL LABOR POLICY
468. Mrs L.M. HARVEY to the Premier:
I refer to the federal members of
the WA Labor Party who are trying to block tax cuts for all Western Australians.
Has the Premier spoken to his federal colleagues and encouraged them to stop
blocking tax cuts that will put desperately needed money back into the pockets
of struggling Western Australians; and, if not, why not?

AnswerView source ↗

As I understand it, that is a federal
issue. I will let my federal colleagues make their own decisions on that
matter.
Mr D.T. Redman interjected.
The SPEAKER : Member for
Warren–Blackwood!
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Members!
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Members! Okay,
guys; let us get a running list here: Minister for Police; Treasurer; and
member for Warren–Blackwood, twice I called you—before I got up
and then after I got up. It is called the daily double. I called you and I stood
up and you still went on. I will take a bit of time writing these down, which
will eat into question time.
