MS R. SAFFIOTI (West Swan) [8.50 pm]: It is a pleasure to be on my feet once again today, this time dealing with the Appropriation (Consolidated Account) Capital 2014–15 Bill 2014. In my earlier speech today I outlined some of the structural problems with the recurrent operating side of the budget. I want to talk briefly about the capital side of the budget and one of the reasons that net debt is increasing. As I have stated before, we all support capital expenditure because it provides much-needed infrastructure throughout our community. What is really good for capital infrastructure is to not have to borrow for the whole lot of it, and that is one of the reasons net debt has increased dramatically under this government. The opposition supports capital investment and public sector infrastructure, but the government has had to borrow for basically everything it is building. I reflect upon the discussions about funding the Perth–Mandurah railway in the early 2000s. I remember the criticism of the Liberal Party at the time that it was unaffordable. I read comments the other night that said that it was five or 10 years before its time. Mr D.J. Kelly: Trains before their time! Ms R.

MR M. McGOWAN (Rockingham — Leader of the Opposition) [12.20 pm]: I rise to speak on the Premier’s Statement. The year 2016 marks the final year before the state election. It is a crucial year for Western Australia. Western Australia is at the crossroads. Our state needs change; it needs a change of direction and Western Australians know it. Western Australia is crying out for a change from the management that this government has provided this state. Our state needs a new government. It needs new ideas and it needs a new direction. We need to get rid of our tired, old government—a government that has created an enormous mess in Western Australia. We need a competent, responsible and honest government in Western Australia. We need a government with a vision for the future—the long-term future of Western Australia—and a team that is prepared to hang in there for the long haul. WA Labor has a team that is ready to govern. I love this state. It has provided me with opportunities beyond my wildest imaginings. I may have come from somewhere else, but I have lived the majority of my life in Western Australia. This is a state of resilient, decent and hardworking people with good values of honesty, compassion and decency.

CATANIA (North West Central) [4.02 pm]: I move — That this house calls upon the Labor government to immediately address the shortfall in support for Western Australian small businesses and industries suffering because they are unable to access relief and recovery measures. We have moved this motion today, and I am going to outline the reasons that small businesses, particularly tourism businesses in regional Western Australia, are suffering at the moment due to, obviously, the COVID-19 pandemic and how it has affected everyone from all walks of life. Every which way that we operate in society has been affected. I want to talk about small business. More than 224 000 small businesses operate in Western Australia, employing around 490 000 workers and contributing billions of dollars to the Western Australian economy. There are more than 50 000 small businesses in regional Western Australia. Nearly half the jobs created in Western Australia are created by the small business sector, and small business accounts for half of WA’s private sector industry employment. Small businesses in regional towns and communities support local economies and communities, and that is why we want people to buy local and support our businesses. Before COVID-19, small businesses were faced with a range of challenges. The higher cost of doing business is generally different from region to region, and I will explain the difference between the southern and northern parts of Western Australia.

MR J.R. QUIGLEY (Mindarie) [9.31 am]: Mr Speaker, I would like to make a speech concerning policing in Western Australia. At the outset, I preface my speech by saying that I have the utmost respect and admiration for the thousands of brave and conscientious police officers who police Western Australia, and who, by their devotion to duty, secure the streets so that they are safe enough for my wife and my children to walk about without the expectation of being assaulted or otherwise endangered. I thank all those officers who serve in the traffic branch and who stay up all night in difficult conditions, patrolling our streets to keep the streets safe enough for me to drive home with the expectation that I will not be killed by a hoon. I thank all of those officers serving in crime command who work so valiantly detecting crime by organised criminals and others, and who have achieved such remarkable results, especially in the interdiction of drug laboratories. They have made big inroads into the amphetamine trade in Western Australia. Finally, I thank, also, those officers of this state, including the undercover officers, who on a daily basis put themselves in danger by engaging with organised criminals and bikie gangs to bring evidence before the courts that will see these people prosecuted.

MRS R.M.J. CLARKE (Murray–Wellington) [8.01 pm]: Prior to the dinner break, I was in the middle of my speech. On 23 August 2017, the Parliament established a joint select committee of the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Council to inquire into and report on the need for laws in Western Australia to allow citizens to make informed decisions regarding their own end-of-life choices. The Joint Select Committee on End of Life Choices was formed. The terms of reference included — a) assess the practices currently being utilised within the medical community to assist a person to exercise their preferences for the way they want to manage their end of life when experiencing chronic and/or terminal illnesses, including the role of palliative care; b) review the current framework of legislation, proposed legislation and other relevant reports and materials in other Australian States and Territories and overseas jurisdictions; c) consider what type of legislative change may be required, including an examination of any federal laws that may impact such legislation; and d) examine the role of Advanced Health Directives, Enduring Power of Attorney and Enduring Power of Guardianship laws and the implications for individuals covered by these instruments in any proposed legislation.

BARNETT (Cottesloe — Premier) [3.16 pm]: I rise to outline the Liberal–National government’s legislative and policy agenda for 2016—the eighth year of the government and the final year of the thirty-ninth Parliament. Bushfires: Unfortunately, once again I begin this Premier’s Statement noting the tragic consequences of recent major bushfires across the state. In November, fires near Esperance claimed four lives and burned more than 260 000 hectares of farm and bushland. In January, a massive fire near Waroona claimed two lives and razed the town of Yarloop, destroying some 181 homes and businesses. The effects of such devastation are heartbreaking, not least for the family and friends of those who died but also for the people who lost homes, animals and treasured possessions. I acknowledge and thank the efforts of all who fought the fires and the many thousands who supported those firefighting efforts, including volunteers. The government has appointed Euan Ferguson, former head of the Victorian Country Fire Authority and the South Australian Country Fire Service, to thoroughly investigate the response to the Waroona fire. The terms of reference for the investigation are wide enough to address issues relevant to the Esperance fire and other major events.

Sutherland) informed the Assembly that he was in receipt within the prescribed time of a letter from the Leader of the Opposition seeking to debate a matter of public interest. [In compliance with standing orders, at least five members rose in their places.] MR M. McGOWAN (Rockingham — Leader of the Opposition) [4.32 pm]: I move — That this house calls on the Barnett government to guarantee there will be no forced council amalgamations in the metropolitan area or regional WA. This is an opportunity for all members of this house to put on record where they stand on a pressing issue in Western Australia today. This issue will be at the forefront of public attention tomorrow when the government releases its new boundary maps for local governments in metropolitan Perth. Today, prior to that release, members of the house can say whether they support forced amalgamations of councils or whether they oppose them. It is very simple. If local communities are forced to amalgamate without the opportunity for the referendum procedures under the law, it is a forced amalgamation. If local communities are legislated to create a larger local authority, it is a forced amalgamation. It is quite clear and simple. This is an opportunity for members to express their views on metropolitan Perth or regional WA.
