HON ALISON XAMON (North Metropolitan) [5.26 pm]: I rise tonight to make some comments about concerns that have been raised about me that have now made their way to the media about the appropriateness of me being appointed, as a Greens member, to the committee that oversights the Corruption and Crime Commission. I wanted an opportunity to respond to some of those comments.
HON ALISON XAMON (North Metropolitan) [ 8.49 pm ]: I rise tonight to speak about the future of the Claisebrook Road North area in East Perth. I am particularly concerned about what will happen to the concrete batching plants in this area in the future. For those members who may not be aware of the precinct that I am referring to, it is the part of Claisebrook that is bounded by Lord Street, Summers Street, the railway and the Graham Farmer Freeway. It was initially part of the East Perth redevelopment area but it passed back into local government control in 2002.
