34th Governor of Western Australia

His Excellency the Honourable Chris Dawson AC APM

The Governor, as the representative of the Head of State, and Government House have played a central role in the ongoing development of Western Australia since 1829.

We believe the primary role of Government House is to serve the community. In addition the Governor holds an advocacy role emphasising excellence in WA.
