Aaron Morey, Chief economist at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry WA told Oliver Peterson on Perth Live that there was not a lot in the budget for Western Australia.

"The government has just sort of got their feet under the table but I do have some concern around an announcement they made about establishing a South Australian defence industry workforce and skills task force," he told Oly.

"Western Australia is the natural location for many of those defence assets and so we are keen to see the federal government put a lot more focus on the role WA can play beyond mining and commodities."
