9News Perth | Thursday September 17 | Full Bulletin
In less than 24 hours Fremantle’s season goes on the line, with the Dockers taking a massive step towards history – in their preliminary final against Sydney.
Elsewhere, a migration crackdown is coming for international students and backpackers – unveiled in the government’s long awaited plan. But industries are sounding the alarm, warning of worker shortages and skyrocketing costs.
Across the city, the number of mental health beds at Perth Children’s Hospital will be slashed – despite warnings the system is in crisis. It’s part of ongoing refurbishments, the government says will make the ward “fit for purpose”.
And in other news, new reforms have been introduced, shaking up local governments across Western Australia. The changes will mean fewer trips to the ballot box for voters – also giving councils more opportunities to merge. | *Subscribe and 🔔: http://9Soci.al/KM6e50GjSK9*
