CAP STATEMENT ON THE RESULTS OF THE JULY 2022 REFERENDUM CYCLE
Laensterbailog, 28 July 2022

The Citizens Advancement Party welcome the outcomes of all three referenda held on July 27th. As part of the 'United for Change' camp which campaigned in favour of all three initiatives, we feel that our goals have been achieved.

Although the WA Delegacy Reform Bill failed with a huge majority for the No option, this does not mean that WA Delegacy reform is dead. We will work with all parties and listen to all critiques to formulate a proposal which is acceptable to a majority of RWA citizens. In the end, the status quo is not the best option. The people did not vote for the status quo. Rather, the people voted to reject the unnecessary marginalization of the office with the introduction of a regional puppet to fill the position.

CAP will continue to participate in the Emergency Council and will adapt to the new regulations set out in SB107. The Citizens Advancement Party believes in direct democracy and welcome the proposal to hold multiple referenda cycles. In all of which CAP will campaign and encourage citizen participation in regional politics.

With the final extension to the state of emergency, the party will now start preparations for the General Election to be held in September. Glory to the RWA!
