HON ALISON XAMON (North Metropolitan) [6.42 pm]: There is lots of talk about the need to create jobs at both the federal and state level, and for good reason, particularly because the COVID-19 pandemic means that we are likely to be looking at a recession next year and that means that we need to look at opportunities to create employment. I want to draw to members’ attention a business case that has been put forward by Guide Dogs WA that is about creating jobs and addressing the longstanding need to deal with the backlog in the availability of guide dogs.
