Disability

246. Hon ALISON XAMON to the Minister for Disability Services:

I refer to the COVID-19 pandemic, and to people with disability who rely on the community sector workforce for the provision of essential daily living support.

(1)  Will any additional funding be granted to the sector to ensure essential supports are not disrupted during the crisis?

(2)  If yes to (1), how much; and when will this funding be made available?

(3)  If no to (1), why not?

Motion

HON MICHAEL MISCHIN (North Metropolitan — Deputy Leader of the Opposition) [1.03 pm]: I move —

That this house expresses its concern at the McGowan government’s failure to fulfil its election commitments.
