    1. West Australian residents;
    2. West Australian citizens; or
    3. West Australian electors in a nominated electorate.
      The eligibility requirement for each e-Petition is identified on the web site.
  2. You have not already joined the e-Petition.

    Otherwise, you are entering the name, address and email address details of someone else because they are physically incapable of entering their details and:

  • to the best of your knowledge the details that you enter are true and correct.
  • By electing to join an e-Petition, you acknowledge that your name, address and email address will be published on the physical tabled paper of the e-Petition retained by the Legislative Council.

All electronic personal data relating to the posting and joining of an e-petition will be disposed of within six months of the e-petition being printed and presented to the Legislative Council. Further information on the collection and storage of personal information is available in our Privacy Statement

    IMPORTANT: Failing to comply with these Conditions of Use may amount to a contempt of Parliament. Actions that are considered to be in contempt of Parliament include:

    • presenting a forged or falsified document to the House or a committee;
    • submitting a petition containing false, scandalous or groundless allegations; or
    • inducing a person to sign a petition by fraud and misleading the House.

    Sign Wait times and access to allied health services from 0-8 age range in WA

    To the President and Members of the Legislative Council:

    residents of Western Australia respectfully request the Legislative Council to support the establishment of a parliamentary committee into the adequacy of child development services and related programs delivered in Western Australia.
    Timely access to early learning programs and child development services are pivotal to a child’s overall wellbeing and development. The wait lists to access paediatricians, clinical psychologists, allied health specialists and other therapeutic services in the public health system are, however, too long and are causing significant challenges for children and their families living in metropolitan, regional and remote locations.
    We believe an inquiry is necessary to examine these services and other early years initiatives provided to support children and their families, including identifying any opportunities for improved collaboration and integration of services in both the government and non-government sectors. This includes consideration of providing allied health services directly in to government schools.

    And your petitioners as in duty bound, will ever pray.

    Sorry this e-Petition status is "Closed". You may not sign the petition at this time.
