  • P363a-364A Hon Dr Steve Thomas
    Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL — Thursday, 14 February 2019] p363a-364a Hon Dr Steve Thomas STATE PARLIAMENTARY LIBERAL PARTY — ALBANY CONFERENCE Statement HON DR STEVE THOMAS (South West) [5.31 pm]: I would like to take this opportunity to pass on my thanks to the community of Albany for its hospitality last week. The state Parliamentary Liberal Party took itself down to Albany for its annual summer conference, where some of that time was spend on internal discussion. The community of Albany was incredibly welcoming of all members of Parliament from the state opposition. The state opposition took great advantage of that and spread about throughout the community to learn more about the great southern and the town of Albany. There were some great examples of this. There was a focus on learning more about that lovely part of the world that I am privileged to represent. We sent Hon Jim Chown, for example, to the Shire of Plantagenet to the talk about tourism and regional infrastructure. Hon Tjorn Sibma went to look at the Great Southern Highway and the issues that relate to that. I know that Hon Simon O’Brien is a passionate advocate of motorsports and he looked at that. Hon Donna Faragher visited the local TAFE. Hon Nick Goiran spoke to a number of community groups. Hon Michael Mischin and I spoke to groups about Albany’s main street industry and development, particularly on the foreshore. Although he has been called away on urgent parliamentary business, Hon Ken Baston visited the major agricultural industries in the great southern.
