    PARLIAMENT OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA INAUGURAL SPEECH Hon Bradley William Pettitt, MLC (Member for South Metropolitan) Legislative Council Address-in-Reply Tuesday, 1 June 2021 Reprinted from Hansard Legislative Council Tuesday, 1 June 2021 ____________ ADDRESS-IN-REPLY Motion Resumed from 27 May on the following motion moved by Hon Pierre Yang — That the following address be presented to His Excellency the Honourable Kim Beazley, Companion of the Order of Australia, Governor in and over the state of Western Australia and its dependencies in the Commonwealth of Australia — May it please Your Excellency: We, the members of the Legislative Council of the Parliament of Western Australia in Parliament assembled, beg to express our loyalty to our most gracious sovereign and thank Your Excellency for the speech you have been pleased to deliver to Parliament. HON DR BRAD PETTITT (South Metropolitan) [3.11 pm]: Thank you, President. May I begin by also congratulating you on your election to the role. I would also like to congratulate all my colleagues here today on their recent election to this chamber. I would like to begin my inaugural speech by acknowledging the Whadjuk people as the traditional owners of the land on which we meet, and recognise that their culture, heritage and beliefs are still important today. Now, during National Reconciliation Week, it feels even more appropriate to acknowledge this, as it highlights an issue that is fundamental to our state’s and, indeed, our nation’s future. As WA moves towards 2029, 200 years since the establishment of the Swan River Colony, we have a unique opportunity to speed up our journey of reconciliation.

    Parliamentary Debates (HANSARD) FORTY-FIRST PARLIAMENT FIRST SESSION 2021 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL Tuesday, 11 May 2021 Legislative Council Tuesday, 11 May 2021 THE PRESIDENT (Hon Kate Doust) took the chair at 2.00 pm, read prayers and acknowledged country. CARAVAN AND CAMPING GROUNDS REGULATIONS 1997 Petition HON TJORN SIBMA (North Metropolitan) [2.03 pm]: On behalf of Hon Simon O’Brien, I present a petition containing 22 signatures couched in the following terms. To the President and Members of the Legislative Council of the Parliament of Western Australia in Parliament assembled. We the undersigned are OPPOSED to the Caravan and Camping Grounds Regulations 1997 (Regulations) in its current form. We believe that the Regulations are outdated, inadequate and do not accurately reflect the needs of the community, local businesses, and the quality of self-contained habitable vehicles and trailers (mobile dwellings). Self-contained mobile dwellings represent a suitable affordable housing option for many different people in our community, particularly for retirees, small families and seasonal workers. The need for low cost, mobile dwellings is especially important in the current environment of rental housing shortages and unaffordability affecting our community. We therefore ask the Legislative Council to recommend the following modifications to the Regulations: 1. Create a new term and meaning to accurately categorise self-contained mobile dwellings, including tiny homes on wheels, caravans and motorhomes. Self-contained mobile dwellings should not be classed and regulated the same as non-self-contained vehicles or tents, and, as such, should NOT be defined as “camping” while they are being inhabited on private property.

  • City of Fremantle Plastic Bag Reduction Local Law 2015 —
    Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL — Tuesday, 13 October 2015] p7104b-7118a Hon Peter Katsambanis; Hon Sue Ellery; Hon Lynn MacLaren; Hon Rick Mazza; Hon Robin Chapple; Hon Adele Farina; Hon Paul Brown; Hon Helen Morton; Hon Simon O'Brien; Hon Ken Travers CITY OF FREMANTLE PLASTIC BAG REDUCTION LOCAL LAW 2015 — DISALLOWANCE Motion Pursuant to standing order 67(3), the following motion by Hon Peter Katsambanis was moved pro forma on 17 June — That the City of Fremantle Plastic Bag Reduction Local Law 2015, published in the Government Gazette on 24 March 2015 and tabled in the Legislative Council on 21 April 2015 under the Local Government Act 1995, be and is hereby disallowed. HON PETER KATSAMBANIS (North Metropolitan) [8.08 pm]: I put on record that, of course, I support the disallowance motion. It is with some regret that I had to bring this motion to the house, because we dealt with a very similar issue in this place almost two years ago to the day. At that time, the City of Fremantle chose to implement a local law that would impose a condition on retailers to charge consumers if they were issuing them with one of the time-honoured plastic bags that are sometimes called single-use plastic bags. Parliament sent a strong message at the time to the City of Fremantle that although its aim was laudable—of litter reduction and the prevention of potential environmental issues of plastic bags through their misuse and getting into the rubbish stream or the broader ecosystem through water sources—it was not a matter that was best dealt with on an ad hoc basis by individual local governments.

    Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL — Thursday, 13 May 2021] p545b-563a Hon Colin Tincknell; Hon Alison Xamon; Hon Adele Farina a student of change and I am ready for the next challenge. If there are a whole bundle of things that I need to learn to do the next job or the next career well, that is what I will do. Thank you to everyone here. Mr Acting President, if you could pass on my best wishes to the President. I also thank my party for giving me the opportunity to represent the people of this state. Thank you. [Applause.] The ACTING PRESIDENT (Hon Martin Aldridge): Thank you, Hon Colin Tincknell, for your service to the Council, and all the best for your future endeavours. Sitting suspended from 12.59 to 2.00 pm HON ALISON XAMON (North Metropolitan) [2.02 pm]: Thank you, Mr Deputy President. I want to begin my valedictory by paying my respects to the traditional owners of the land on which we are meeting, the Whadjuk Noongar people. I reflect on the positive decision that was made in this place during this term to ensure that this acknowledgement of country is automatically included every day when we open our proceedings. It was a change that was not made before time, and it is a sombre reflection, I think, that in 2021 we have so very far to go in achieving justice and reconciliation for the First Nations people of this land. I want to share my gratitude with those First Nations people who over the two terms I have been in this place have worked with and guided me in trying to address so many of those issues that continue to remain unaddressed
