    INQUIRY INTO A NEW REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUNDING PRQGRABUBMISSION 80 Submission by the Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance: 9th July 2008. 1. The Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance Based in the South West of Western Australia,, the Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance (the Alliance) is an association of the Shires of Boyup Brook, Bridgetown-Greenbushes, Manjimup and Nannup supported by the South West Development Commission. Its Board Members also include representatives from the community.

It is in this context that we make this submission. This submission has been approved by the Board of the Warren Blackwood Strategic Alliance 2. The importance of the Regional Partnerships Programme (RPP) to the Warren Blackwood area. The Warren Blackwood area (comprising the Shires of Boyup Brook, Bridgetown-Greenbushes, Manjimup and Nannup) gains only peripheral benefit from the significant growth in population and business which has recently taken place in the coastal areas of the South West Region of Western Australia. This growth has occurred principally in the City of Bunbury and the towns of Busselton, Dunsborough and Margaret River and is projected to continue over the next few years. As a result of this growth the population of the South West Region of Western Australia increased by 29.1% from 1996 to 2006. In this ten year period the population of the Warren Blackwood decreased by 5.6%. At the time of the 2006 Census the population of the Warren Blackwood (16.243) comprised 11.2% of the population of the South West Region of Western Australia (145,308).
