RE: ‘Putting Our Kids First’ 2015/16 state budget submission Dear President Pat Byrne, Secretary Carolyn Smith and Branch Secretary Toni Walkington, Thank you for your letter and submission received on the 12 March, 2015 regarding your community campaign, Putting Our Kids First. My colleague, the Hon Lynn MacLaren is the Greens WA spokesperson for the Education portfolio and as such, will respond to you. However, as the Greens WA spokesperson for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples portfolio, I will be asking questions of the Barnett Government about cuts to the Aboriginal and Islander Education Officers. The Greens WA are committed to a quality public education and training system that is recognised as among the best in the world. For your interest, here is a link to our Education Policy. The Greens WA are very supportive of your campaign.
Yours sincerely
The Hon Robin Chapple MLC Member for the Mining and Pastoral Region 26 March 2015
