'Walking on a Dream' ad campaign spruiking WA tourism outsourced to east-coast company
A taxpayer-funded ad campaign spruiking Western Australia to tourists is being led by an east-coast production company, in a move the premier has called 'disappointing" and urged the decision to be reconsidered. Tourism WA is working on the next phase of its 'Walking On A Dream' campaign, which hopes to sell the state as a "premium holiday destination" to travellers across Australia and the world. A state government spokesperson said while local company The Brand Agency had been chosen to "lead development and production" for the next stage of the campaign, an east coast-based director and production company would be used for part of the work. The spokesperson said the agency assessed more than 50 suppliers, including ones from WA, for their experience, timeframes and ability to "deliver value for money" for the taxpayer-funded campaign. "Unfortunately, while a local production company and director were shortlisted, the cost identified was prohibitively higher than the chosen option," the spokesperson told ABC Radio Perth. They explained the shoot will use at least 70 per cent West Australian crew members and showcase a number of WA tourism operators. Premier Roger Cook said it was a "pretty disappointing" result. "We know that in WA we've got some great production crews and I'm sure that work could have been undertaken in Western Australia," he said. "I would just invite them [The Brand Agency] to reflect on the fact WA has great production, great people working in the creative industries. Deputy Liberal leader Libby Mettam said the government needed to listen to its own 'Made in WA' message — a tagline it is using to sell efforts to diversify the state's economy. "Western Australians have the expertise and the know-how and capability to deliver this campaign and it's extraordinary hypocrisy that the Cook Labor government are not employing our own experts to deliver this campaign," she said. The premier responded: "We want Made in WA to be a reality." "It would've been good if they could've just made sure that they were part of that," he said of The Brand Agency. In budget estimates, Creative Industries Minister Simone McGurk had said the government was "proud of the work" it had been doing to grow the local screen industry. "Both building the new studios which are expected to be completed by early next year, but also making sure that we do everything we can so that West Australian talent is fostered," she said. Ms McGurk highlighted a $5 million targeted industry capacity-building program, to address "urgent small infrastructure and capacity needs" of WA businesses, and incentives offered to productions which spend a minimum amount in WA. "While there won't be a mandated component for local content, actually making sure that there are opportunities for West Australians and West Australian companies is very much at the core of the screen industry strategy," she said. The Brand Agency has been contacted for comment.

Eileen Bond, ex-wife of controversial Perth businessman Alan Bond, dies aged 87
Eileen Bond, the former wife of controversial West Australian businessman Alan Bond, has died. Ms Bond's family has confirmed to the ABC the 87-year-old died on Wednesday night. Alan and Eileen Bond married in 1955 when they were both 17 and had four children together before divorcing in 1992. The Perth-based pair became a high-profile couple as Mr Bond's fortunes grew. They were together when his sailing team won the America's Cup in 1983, prompting massive national celebrations. But Alan Bond left a mixed legacy, with a very public corporate fall that ended with bankruptcy and a jail term. He died in 2015 after undergoing heart surgery. At the time Ms Bond, who had remained on good terms with her former husband, returned to Perth from London. "We've been in constant contact, but it's a very sad time," she told reporters at the time. John Bond, Eileen's son with Alan, also said at the time his parents had remained close to his mother after their divorce and described the pair as "great soul mates who never broke their connection".
