Parliamentary Debates (HANSARD) Parliamentary Debates (HANSARD) THIRTY-NINTH PARLIAMENT FIRST SESSION 2016 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Wednesday, 18 May 2016 Legislative Assembly Wednesday, 18 May 2016 THE SPEAKER (Mr M.W. Sutherland) took the chair at 12.00 noon, and read prayers. LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY — MEDIA ACCESS Statement by Speaker THE SPEAKER (Mr M.W. Sutherland): I wish to advise members that I have approved the presence of a photographer at the south door of the chamber today to cover the Leader of the Opposition delivering the budget reply speech. HOUSING AUTHORITY — TENANTS — INCOME ASSESSMENT Petition MR F.M. LOGAN (Cockburn) [12.01 pm]: I have a petition from a further 29 petitioners who have signed the documents before me that have been stamped in accordance with the standing orders of the house, couched in the following terms — To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of the Parliament of Western Australia in Parliament assembled, we the undersigned petitioners say that the recent decision by the National Party Minister for Housing to change the income assessment for Housing Authority tenants is a direct attack on the most vulnerable in our society. To now incorporate Centrelink and Veterans Affairs benefits and allowances as assessable income for the purposes of paying Housing Authority rent is effectively taking away tenant’s concession payments that are paid to assist with a particular situation or disability. Now we ask the Legislative Assembly to call on the Barnett government to immediately reverse this grossly unfair and financially debilitating rental decision that is pushing pensioners, war veterans and the disabled into absolute poverty. [See petition 376.] ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AUTHORITY — BAYSWATER CONCRETE BATCHING PLANT Petition MR D.J. KELLY (Bassendean) [12.02 pm]: My petition contains 353 signatures and complies with the standing orders. The petition reads — To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of the Parliament of Western Australia in Parliament assembled. We, the undersigned, say The proposal to build a concrete batching plant adjacent to parks and homes in Grey St Bayswater is of great concern to local residents. The proposal is also opposed by the City of Bayswater. Unfortunately, the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) has refused to subject the proposal to an environmental impact assessment. In its decision, the Assessment and Compliance Division of the EPA said “the proposal raises a number of environmental issues. However, the overall environmental impact of the proposal is not so significant as to require assessment by the EPA”. The decision is dismissive of the concerns of residents and at odds with the EPA’s admission that there are environmental issues with the proposal. Now we ask the Legislative Assembly To ask the Minister for the Environment to instruct the EPA to conduct an environmental impact assessment of the proposed concrete batching plant a Lot 2 Collier Rd, Bayswater. [See petition 377.] PAPERS TABLED Papers were tabled and ordered to lie upon the table of the house. 3186 [ASSEMBLY — Wednesday, 18 May 2016] BILLS Notice of Motion to Introduce 1. Universities Legislation Amendment Bill 2016. Notice of motion given by Mrs L.M. Harvey (Deputy Premier). 2. Taxi Amendment Bill 2016. Notice of motion given by Mr D.C. Nalder (Minister for Transport). WA JOINT ORGANISED CRIME TASKFORCE Statement by Minister for Police MRS L.M. HARVEY (Scarborough — Minister for Police) [12.06 pm]: I rise to inform the house of the successes of the Western Australian Joint Organised Crime Taskforce, which marked one year of operation last month. The Liberal–National government remains committed to targeting the scourge of methamphetamine in the Western Australian community. This involves a multifaceted, whole-of-government effort that involves targeting the sale, supply and demand for this destructive and toxic drug. The establishment of the WA Joint Organised Crime Taskforce forms an integral part of this commitment. Since April 2015 the multi-agency task force, consisting of members from Western Australia Police, the Australian Federal Police, the Australian Border Force, the Australian Crime Commission and the Australian Transaction and Analysis Centre—AUSTRAC—has been co-located at the AFP aviation operations building at Perth Airport. The task force has been focused on targeting the importation and distribution of illicit drugs, particularly methamphetamine, via post, airstream, road, rail, sea and other channels into Western Australia. The task force allows these key agencies to share intelligence on drug importations, such as the ACC intelligence relating to meth organised crime groups, combine specialist capabilities, and detect and disrupt meth importation into WA and arrest those responsible. Since the inception of the WA Joint Organised Crime Taskforce, the combined efforts of key enforcement and intelligence agencies has resulted in the seizure of over 78 kilograms of meth, with 27 offenders charged with 55 commonwealth and state offences. These significant seizures include the 26-kilogram meth bust that took place in February this year. The task force should be commended for its efforts in its first year of operation and will continue to work collaboratively and gather intelligence to seize meth off our streets. The Liberal–National government will continue to support these effective measures and remains steadfast in its commitment to address the scourge of the drug. ART GALLERY OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA — WINTER REVEAL Statement by Minister for Culture and the Arts MR J.H.D. DAY (Kalamunda — Minister for Culture and the Arts) [12.08 pm]: I rise to briefly update the house on some recent changes and initiatives at the Art Gallery of Western Australia. The art gallery is the premier institution for the collection and display of visual arts in this state. It has a fantastic and ever-growing collection that includes some of the best artists in Western Australia. In 2016 the art gallery is inviting visitors to “see things differently” and improve perceptions of the gallery and maximise its engagement with the broader arts sector and the Western Australian community. In light of that, this evening the art gallery will host its Winter Reveal event, which will launch a range of new initiatives including the launch of its new exhibition, Sacred and Profane; a new brand identity; new exhibition and engagement spaces; and announcement of a new restaurant. The Winter Reveal event will be the first opportunity visitors will get to see the art gallery’s new micro-galleries, called Sky and Garden. These are small spaces in which to display works of scale, and they are a clever use of previously underutilised spaces. The new Imagination Room is an activity space overlooking the city that will be used for education, events, family activities, artist talks and digital adventure. Every space has been considered, and even a stairwell on the south east corner of the building has been transformed into a sound gallery. The exhibition to be opened tonight, Sacred and Profane, is a presentation of three very large-scale international works, including one that is installed along the whole length of a gallery wall, and another that includes more than 3 000 diaries and notebooks. Tonight’s event will also include guided tours, an art workshop, a virtual reality art experience, and performances by the fantastic Western Australian dance company, Co3. There will also be an announcement of the new food and beverage operator for the cafe space at the entrance to the building, a refreshed art gallery website, and new video content will be produced. The Art Gallery of Western Australia continues to demonstrate innovation in its programming and public engagement, with new partnerships, spaces, and an exciting exhibition program ahead. I encourage members and the wider community to visit the art gallery and explore the new spaces for themselves. [ASSEMBLY — Wednesday, 18 May 2016] 3187 WESTERN AUSTRALIA–JAPAN TRADE RELATIONSHIP Statement by Minister for State Development MR W.R. MARMION (Nedlands — Minister for State Development) [12.10 pm]: It is with great pleasure that I stand today to emphasise Western Australia’s important trade relationship with Japan. A highlight for me of last month’s successful eighteenth International Conference and Exhibition on Liquefied Natural Gas was the strength of Japanese representation. More than 60 Japanese companies were represented at LNG 18, with many of them participating as exhibitors. Key executives from Japanese companies such as Chiyoda Corporation, Inpex Corporation, Tokyo Gas, JGC Corporation and Mitsubishi also participated in many of the presentations, workshops and panel discussions held during the conference. This strong presence underlines the strength of our state’s longstanding relationship with Japan, which is based on trade, investment and cross-cultural ties. Japanese companies have long taken equity investments in Western Australian projects, becoming foundation investors in the development of Western Australia’s iron ore and LNG industries. Japan received the first shipment of iron ore from Geraldton in 1966 and the first LNG shipment from the North West Shelf in 1989. Fast forward to 2016 and the first shipment of LNG from Chevron’s $US54 billion Gorgon project was delivered to Chubu Electric Power Company in Japan—50 years on from that first iron ore shipment. Japan is Western Australia’s second largest trading partner, with total trade valued at $19 billion in 2015, representing 32 per cent of Australia’s total trade with Japan. Western Australia is a stable and reliable supplier of resources and agricultural products to Japan, with exports from these sectors valued at $16.7 billion in 2015. Japan is an important source of investment and is the third largest source of foreign direct investment in Australia, which was valued at $66.1 billion in 2014. This year we also commemorate the thirty-fifth anniversary of the sister state relationship between Hyogo Prefecture and Western Australia.

Who knew then he would 1983 (see above!), and I did my first show a year later in grow up to be not only a professional musician and music OLIVER at City Theater. director but also a composer! Brian’s introduction to theater, and mine to his family, began with his mother, Eve Cimmet, when she played the part of the Judge in THE NIGHT OF JANUARY 16th for Portland Art Troupe in 1983 (I was the Swedish housekeeper). Later that year Brian’s two younger sisters, Stephanie and Alison, took turns playing the baby leprechaun in FINIAN’S RAINBOW at Lyric Music Theater. From that time on, the Cimmets hardly left the theater! Even Joe, Brian’s father, took his turn under the stage lights, although not as often, in shows like BELLS ARE RINGING at Lyric, SWEENEY TODD (with Brian in the pit), and FIDDLER ON THE ROOF (with both Eve and Alison in the cast). He says, however, “I’m quite a critic, but not much of an actor. A voice in my head said ENOUGH over a decade ago … and not a moment too soon!” Alison has gone on to become a professional actress based in Brian Cimmet New York, where she does stage and commercial work, with her acting sometimes taking her to such places as Washington, D.C.

An indispensable classic that defines the indefinable.” –John Zorn “Chusid takes us through the musical looking glass to the other side of the bizarro universe, where pop spelled back- wards is . pop? A fascinating collection of wilder cards and beyond-avant talents.” –Lenny Kaye Irwin Chusid “This book is filled with memorable characters and their preposterous-but-true stories. As a musicologist, essayist, and humorist, Irwin Chusid gives good value for your enter- tainment dollar.” –Marshall Crenshaw Outsider musicians can be the product of damaged DNA, alien abduction, drug fry, demonic possession, or simply sheer obliviousness. But, believe it or not, they’re worth listening to, often outmatching all contenders for inventiveness and originality. This book profiles dozens of outsider musicians, both prominent and obscure, and presents their strange life stories along with photographs, interviews, cartoons, and discographies. Irwin Chusid is a record producer, radio personality, journalist, and music historian.

To be sure, contemporary cultural circumstances have pressured “committed drama,” that is, drama that invites audience members to reflect critically on the world they inhabit by raising social and political issues, and by challenging mainstream aesthetic norms. On the one hand, the mainstream theatre, while still making use of some dramatic structural features, dissociates drama from any subversive political purpose.
