Tania Lawrence's reply

As the countdown closes in on Saturday's Federal election, Labor’s Hasluck candidate, Tania Lawrence, has outlined her Save Perth Hills' election commitment. We met Tania earlier this week and discussed identical issues that we raised with sitting Hasluck member, the Liberals’ Ken Wyatt, including pressures to urbanise the Hills despite increasing bushfire and climate change challenges, the dangerous and destructive North Stoneville plan, and the need to protect our unique (and diminishing) natural environment.

We received Tania’s official response this evening…

Reply from Ken Wyatt

We've had a reply from Ken Wyatt, Federal Member for Hasluck, ahead of this weekend's election.

We met Ken last week to discuss Federal issues such as pressures to urbanise the Hills despite increasing bushfire and climate change challenges, and the need to protect the very thing that IS the Hills, the unique (and diminishing) natural environment.

We also spoke about increasing community concerns around East Link, (reliant on Federal $$$), which will carve up 700+ hectares of bush up Toodyay Rd, and is becoming more about opening up the Hills to housing estates, than to freight.

Ken was visibly surprised by maps we showed him illustrating East Link's intended destruction.

He's sent a letter outlining his on-going opposition to North Stoneville and the need to protect our bushfire prone communities.

We've also met Tania Lawrence, Labor Candidate's for Hasluck, and are awaiting her formal response.

Canvassing Candidates

The Federal election campaign is in full swing and Save Perth Hills is canvassing candidates for their views on our environment, safer planning for bushfire prone communities in a future of increasing climate change, the proposed destructive East Link and of course, $atterley’s dangerous ‘North $toneville’ plan. We’re meeting Labor’s candidate Tania Lawrence tomorrow (Friday). Here’s a video snapshot from Team Lawrence. Stay tuned: We’ll update you tomorrow on how Tania Lawrence - WA Labor for Hasluck plans to help - Save Perth Hills

The video is a Facebook video so I'm not able to get the link to work outside of Facebook - sorry.
