If you are a DAP affected community, now is a great opportunity to speak to your elected council members and request your council’s support and vote for the abolition of the current DAP process.
And if you think a change of government will abolish the DAP, think again. Labor under the leadership of Mark McGowan has just supported City of Perth Bill in collaboration with the current government.
DAP has bi-partisan support. It’s up to our councils to make a stand on the DAP.
