SHENTON PARK REHABILITATION HOSPITAL REDEVELOPMENT

HON ALISON XAMON (North Metropolitan) [ 9.48 pm ]: Earlier today I tabled a petition about the redevelopment of Shenton Park rehabilitation hospital. I would like to draw members’ attention to the fact that the two originators of that petition — Heidi Hardisty and Lynette Jennings — along with some other local residents, were able to get more than 300 signatures on the petition in just a couple of days. I think that indicates just how much the community in this area cares about what will happen with this particular patch of bushland.
