This is the personal blog of Ian Ker, who was Councillor for the South Ward of the Town of Vincent from 1995 to 2009. I have been a resident of this area since 1985. This blog was originally conceived as a way of letting residents of Vincent know what I have been doing and sharing thoughts on important issues. I can now use it to sound off about things that concern me.

If you want to contact me, my e-mail is still ian_ker@hotmail.com or post a comment on this blog.

Barnett Government Fails To Follow Due Process

It seems that local government is not the only issue on which the Barnett Government thinks itself above the law and its requirements for due process.

The WA Supreme Court has ruled invalid the WA Government's approval of the James Price Gas Hub in the Kimberley, on the grounds that the process was flawed.

The Barnett Government has shown similar lack of respect for well-established requirements of the law in its forcing of local government amalgamations and will be subject to similar legal challenges.
