PERTH CASINO ROYAL COMMISSION — FINAL
REPORT
187. Mr P.J. RUNDLE to the Minister for Racing and Gaming:
I
have a supplementary question. Noting that the governance and effectiveness of
the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries and
the Gaming and Racing Commission require immediate improvement to implement
these reforms, can we expect additional resources in the budget, and has the
minister raised this with the Premier; Treasurer?
Dr A.D.
BUTI replied:
I understand that the member got the
report only this morning, so he would not have had the chance to read it, but
the member would have listened to my three-minute brief ministerial statement
when I outlined that the department has already started. After the interim
report was tabled by the Premier last year, the department commenced part of
the remediation process. Crown has commenced remediation. Things are already on
foot. We will ensure that the department has the resources it needs and we will
ensure that the Gaming and Wagering Commission has the resources it needs.
