AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question. The following information has been provided to me
by the Minister for Industrial Relations.
The inquiry was commenced by the
Worksafe WA Commissioner utilising powers under the Work Health and Safety Act
2020. Due to the WorkSafe WA Commissioner being unavailable because he is
attending a meeting of the heads of workplace safety authorities interstate,
the information cannot be provided today. Therefore, I ask the honourable
member to put the question on notice.
