Stolen Wages - Have Your Say

The period for providing 'Have Your Say' information forms ended on 31 January 2008.  The information received will assist the Stolen Wages Taskforce to fully understand and analyse the nature and extent of the Stolen Wages issue in Western Australia and will aide the Taskforce in determining recommendations and outcomes, which will be reported to the Western Australia Government by June 2008.

Enquires about the Project can be directed to the Stolen Wages Project Team on 1800 221 883 or stolenwages@dia.wa.gov.au
