MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES — PILBARA
283. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Premier:
I have a supplementary question.
Nine years on, this project still appears to be going back to the drawing
board.
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Order, please!
I just remind the Leader of the Opposition that the opportunity is for a short,
sharp question, not a statement.
Mr R.S. LOVE : Okay. It is
back to the drawing board for this project nine years on. Will the Premier
personally intervene to make sure that this project is delivered to the people
of the Pilbara?

I thank the member for the
supplementary question. I apologise, member for Kalgoorlie; we also built a step-up,
step-down facility in Kalgoorlie, so my apologies for my oversight of that one.
If it has been nine years since
this project should have been developed, why did the member not do it when he
was in government? We are absolutely committed to seeing this facility
developed. The residents of Karratha deserve it, in the same way that they
deserve all the health and mental health services that we fund in that region.
