Announcement from the Premier

Creating jobs for Western Australians is my number one priority.

WA Industry Link will ensure more opportunities are created for WA businesses, meaning more jobs for local workers. Each year, the State Government spends billions of dollars on goods, services and works for the community. I want to make sure Western Australian businesses get a bigger share of this work and the WA Industry Link portal will help them to do so. Under our plans, prospective suppliers of government contracts will now be required to submit local participation plans as part of their tender. These plans will then be incorporated into the contracts of successful suppliers to ensure the promised local jobs are delivered.

I am proud to lead a government that is working hard to secure more work for Western Australians.

Hon. Mark McGowan MLA
