Steve Mills grilled Baz on some of the commitments he already has in his life and if he does have the time to take this on. 

 

"I think that was probably the case for yourself; to have to look at your obiligations to your family and obviously your work, because you're a pretty busy bloke," Millsy questioned. 

"More than six hours everyday that I can devote to it, in the office," he answered. 

"Let alone what I can bring to it by being on the radio or on the TV, evening functions and weekend work. And if it's a bad thing for the Lord Mayor of the city of Perth to be accessible, available and on air, well, I've misread the situation."

The WA Liberals want harder border restrictions for people coming from New South Wales similar to the restrictions in place for people coming from Victoria. 

The opposition leader Liza Harvey had previously said WA should be open to South Australians and Northern Territorians, but now the Libs are going hard on the calls for borders as a break out occurred in New South Wales. 

"These increased restrictions that have been applied to Victorians, we want them to be applied to people coming from New South Wales as well and that's because there's a growing cluster in New South Wales and that's a massive concern for the Government over there," Liberal Member for Dawesville, Zac Kirkup, told 6PR Breakfast.
