Today in question time the Prime Minister suggested that the basis of my question that GATEWAY WA was funded by the former government was not true. Here is a photo of myself, Troy Buswell, Stephen Smith and the member for Swan. The member for Swan was there at the opening of the first stage in 2013. I seek leave to table this document, which I am sure he is going to agree to.
Leave not granted.
I am sure the member for Swan wants it.
Tony Smith Speaker
The member for Grayndler will resume his seat. The member for Perth?

I do claim to have been misrepresented.
Tony Smith Speaker
Can the member point out where she believes has been misrepresented?

Claims have been made by the Deputy Prime Minister that I sabotaged planning for Perth port. I make it clear that we went to four elections with a pledge to delete the Fremantle Eastern Bypass. We went to those elections with a promise to build a modern, 21st century, outer-harbour, which is the infrastructure that Western Australia needs.

The member for Perth has outlined where she believes she has been misrepresented.
