Mr P. PAPALIA: [...] A cavernous gap has opened up between the minister and the people whose role it is to represent the interests of the local government sector of Western Australia, and the minister is unfairly and inappropriately attacking them for it.

Not only that—minister, do not make me laugh! I look at the police minister’s face and I cannot help laughing! It is unavoidable!

Mr R.F. Johnson: It’s a very jolly face, I know!

Mr P. PAPALIA: I return to the Minister for Local Government; I will get off the subject of the Minister for Police! I have to finish this because I have another appointment!
