    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Wednesday, 12 August 2020] p4793c-4801a Mrs Liza Harvey; Ms Mia Davies; Mr Bill Marmion; Mr Peter Katsambanis IRON ORE PROCESSING (MINERALOGY PTY. LTD.) AGREEMENT AMENDMENT BILL 2020 Second Reading Resumed from an earlier stage of the sitting. MRS L.M. HARVEY (Scarborough — Leader of the Opposition) [2.56 pm]: I rise to continue my remarks about this amending legislation. I put on the record once again that the position of the Liberal Party room was a consensus position to not oppose this legislation. I would like to get on the record that we do not support the actions of Clive Palmer, which is why we are not opposing this legislation. During question time, I asked the Premier whether he would support a short sharp committee inquiry. It is ridiculous to say that the suggestion of a committee inquiry or that contentious legislation go to a committee to potentially strengthen it is in any way, shape or form showing that the legislation is not supported. That is ridiculous. The amending legislation in front of us is backdated to have effect from 11 August. It was read in just after 5.00 pm yesterday so that Mr Palmer and his lawyers could not get wind of it and could not lodge a writ in court. It needed to be read in yesterday after that opportunity had lapsed. The legislation is backdated to be effective from yesterday, 11 August 2020, at around about 5.00 pm. Should the upper house choose to send it to a committee to potentially strengthen it and ward off a potential High Court challenge, it could be done and dusted by 15 September.

    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Wednesday, 27 May 2020] p3229b-3256a Mrs Liza Harvey; Ms Libby Mettam; Mr Kyran O'Donnell; Mr Vincent Catania; Mr Dean Nalder; Dr David Honey; Mrs Alyssa Hayden; Mr Paul Papalia; Mr Roger Cook CORONAVIRUS — GOVERNMENT RESTRICTIONS Motion MRS L.M. HARVEY (Scarborough — Leader of the Opposition) [4.00 pm]: I move — That this house condemns the McGowan Labor government for its handling of the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions and causing unnecessary economic harm, small business closures and job losses. At the outset, I have no quarrel with the way this government, in conjunction with the national cabinet, has handled the health crisis around COVID-19. The way that the state Premiers and the Prime Minister have come together, along with all the health ministers, to put in place measures, a strategy and a response around managing the COVID-19 health crisis has been handled well. I want to be very clear and put that on the record. I believe the lockdown was necessary at the start, because we did not understand what we were dealing with, we did not understand quite how virulent COVID-19 would be and we needed a national stocktake of our health system, its capacity and what was going to be required should we have outbreaks of COVID-19. I am glad the Minister for Health is in the chamber to hear this. I think that the health response has been very good. We are now in a very good position in Western Australia and we have had hundreds of nurses trained to step up into intensive care units should we have an outbreak and require additional ICU beds to open.

    PARLIAMENT OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA INAUGURAL SPEECH Mrs Liza Harvey MLA (Member for Scarborough) Address-in-Reply Debate Legislative Assembly Tuesday, 25 November 2008 Reprinted from Hansard Legislative Assembly Tuesday, 25 November 2008 ____________ Inaugural Speech Mrs Liza Harvey MLA (Member for Scarborough) ADDRESS-IN-REPLY Motion MRS L.M. HARVEY (Scarborough) [7.47 pm]: It is truly an honour and a privilege to stand in this place as the representative of the citizens of the Scarborough electorate. I begin by congratulating you, Mr Speaker, on your election to the office of Speaker of the Legislative Assembly. I wish you well and look forward to your advice and assistance as I navigate my way through the rules and regulations of this chamber. I begin my address to the Assembly tonight with thanks to the people of the electorate of Scarborough who have placed significant trust in me to act as their representative in this place. Throughout my 16 years as a resident and business owner in Scarborough, I have had the privilege of interacting with many members of the community on a daily basis through many different avenues. I will endeavour to represent them to the best of my ability. Although this was a new electorate in the last election, it has previously existed in varying forms as the district of Innaloo and also Scarborough. The current district has been formed out of the electoral districts of Churchlands and Carine, and both electorates, I am proud to say, were commendably served in the recent past by committed and dedicated female politicians, Dr Elizabeth Constable and Katie Hodson-Thomas, whose fine examples have set me an inspirational standard.
