WA:Major WA projects to be delayed: premier=2
Mr Barnett said WA's nation-leading economic growth figures were "distorted".
The Australian Bureau of Statistics released figures on Wednesday showing the WA economy
grew 8.4 per cent in the September quarter - its fastest pace on record.
"It would be wrong to read too much into those (figures)," Mr Barnett said.
"Those figures are driven to higher levels by investment, particular investment in
the Gorgon (natural gas) project.
"You've basically got a skewing of the figures."
