Constituency question- Mildura & Swan Hill-Family Violence
I asked the Minister for Prevention of Family Violence what extra measures are being implemented specifically in and around Mildura and Swan Hill given the terrible comparative proliferation of family violence incidents in each of these two areas of my electorate?
Members Statement- Seymour Expo
Thank you and congratulations to the Seymour Expo team who worked hard over many months to bring this showcase together. The Expo gave me an opportunity to speak to many, many people about the issues that are important to them. It is so important to listen to people, to hear their stories and experiences, and adds to the wealth of information I gather to assist me in representing them in this place.
Adjournment- Public Housing & Retirement Village Sector
My matter is for the Minister for Housing and relates to the lack of any requirement for air conditioning in Victorian public housing. This is clearly an especially acute need in many parts of my electorate of Northern Victoria, which are typically some of the State’s hottest areas. The State Government is obliged, by law, to provide public housing tenants with facilities that are, quote, "fit for habitation". The action I seek is for consideration of improvements to these arrangements
Speech- Out of Home Care Bill 2020
I will close by reiterating that we should never, ever lose sight of the fact that there is still an enormous amount of work to do that goes way, way beyond this legislation in the support and development of children, young people and families more generally. I would like to congratulate Ms Patten on her bill, and I would like to commend this bill to the house.
Constituency Question- Black Spur safety
My question, to the Minister for Roads, is again about safety improvements to the Black Spur road in Murrindindi. I asked the Minister if she could make available an itemised list of both the completed upgrades and planned works- and timelines and costs.
