In 2019 Business News launched a new event series - Politics & Business - designed to provide a platform for government to address and inform business leaders and the broader business community on policies and key issues that affect our state.
The events are usually held as a breakfast and as a 15 minute keynote address followed by a 30 minute moderated in-conversation, including attendee questions using an audience interactive platform.
Politics & Business breakfast with the Hon. Meredith Hammat MLA
Minister for Health; Mental Health
Policy Meets Progress
As Minister for Health and Mental Health, the Hon. Meredith Hammat MLA is leading reforms to strengthen Western Australia’s health system and ensure equitable access to care across the state.
Before entering Parliament in 2021, Ms Hammat served on the expert panel behind the Sustainable Health Review, which continues to shape WA’s health priorities.
With more than 20 years in the union movement, including 12 years as president and secretary of UnionsWA, she brings a deep understanding of workforce wellbeing and community advocacy.
Raised on a farm near Broomehill, Ms Hammat remains a strong voice for regional health and mental health access.
