It should not happen again

It is refreshing to see Alice's plight has been resolved to her satisfaction with the assistance of a well-meaning real estate agency ("Alice gets new flat and kettle", POST 26/6).

It is also interesting to note Justice Minister Michelle Roberts has no qualms about trying to score some "cheap points and make a hero of herself" in her berating of Nedlands Liberal MP Sue Walker in Parliament for going to Alice's aid.

Ms Roberts spent time in Parliament reprimanding Ms Walker's efforts to help Alice when she should have been trying to find out why the Public Trustee and the Guardianship and Administration Board acted in the way they did - and make sure it does not happen again.

Thank you, Caporn Young, Ms Walker and all others who helped Alice in a real way by cutting to the heart of the matter and doing something about it rather than imposing bureaucratic hurdles which in no way serve the community or the people in it.
