Amanda Dorn has called for Penguin Island to be closed to visitors for at least two years to allow the local little penguin population to recover.

In a statement to Parliament, Amanda highlighted that the number of penguins on the island has declined by 94% since 2008. Recent monitoring shows just 114 individuals remain.

The situation on Penguin Island is critical. Without immediate action, the population may not recover.

An issue close to Amanda’s heart, Amanda used a Members Statement in Parliament to speak about the ongoing fight to stop the North Stoneville development.

Amanda highlighted that despite decades of community opposition due to serious bushfire risks, loss of wildlife habitat, and safety concerns, and repeated rejections by planning authorities and local councils, the developer continues to push the unsafe plan.

Amanda stands with Save Perth Hills and calls for the land to be rezoned back to rural or bought back by the government to protect the environment and local residents.

On 24 June 2025, Amanda questioned the Minister for Transport about the environmental impacts of the proposed Burswood Motorplex development.

Amanda raised concerns about the project’s destruction to important wetlands and habitat critical to native species.

On 25 June 2025, Amanda raised serious concerns in Parliament about the continued use of sow stalls in Western Australia.

Sow stalls are restrictive metal crates that confine pregnant pigs so tightly that they can’t move, nuzzle their piglets, or even turn around.

On 28 May 2025, Amanda Dorn MP delivered her inaugural speech to the Western Australian Parliament — marking a historic moment for animals, the environment, and everyone fighting for a more compassionate future.
