Glenthorne Council

Mr BOYER (Wright) (14:25): My question is again to the Deputy Premier. Does the Deputy Premier personally support the creation of a new Glenthorne council?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (14:25): It is a matter, as I have indicated, that any of these applications need to go to the commission and the commission makes a decision about whether there should be an investigation. They do the investigation if they think that is correct and then they put a recommendation to me. So, in relation to any of these matters, I will wait for that due process to be undertaken if and when any of you put an application in or encourage your councils to do so.
