Constituency question- Yarrawonga/Mulwala Bridge
My constituency question is for the Minister for Roads. It is about the longstanding desire of my constituents in Yarrawonga and surrounding areas for a new Yarrawonga-Mulwala bridge crossing to be constructed.
Amendment- Serious Offenders and Other Matters Bill 2019
My amendment to the Serious Offenders and Other Matters Bill 2019 was seeking to ensure that the government takes the step of proactively advising the relevant victims of crime of their right, a right already enshrined in law, to receive a share of a compensation payout. That is, I am asking that a relevant victim or victims are notified by the government as soon as a compensation payment of $10 000 or more is awarded to a particular, current or former prisoner or person on remand.
Members Statement- Yarrunga Primary School
Yarrunga Primary School is a place of Big Ideas, Dreams and Wonderings. It’s a school where the curriculum is delivered a bit differently, and with solid results so far. Students have a say in what they want to learn about – things that make them curious, that make them question and wonder. This style of engagement and integrating their wonderings into the curriculum has improved student attendance, behaviour and results.
Adjournment- Working with children checks
In the last sitting week, through an adjournment matter for the Attorney-General, I raised a number of concerns associated with the application of working with children checks in the sporting arena. I am afraid I am returning to pose a similar matter to her again tonight. A fortnight ago my adjournment speech related to martial arts; this evening it relates to Australian Rules Football.
Constituency Question- Kinglake fuel load
My question is to the Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change. It relates to the mounting concerns about the now extreme rating of fuel loads in Victoria’s east central fire zone, covering many towns in my electorate.
Adjournment- PANDA Week
I raised the awareness of the annual PANDA Week across Australia as it is so near and dear to my heart. PANDA is an acronym for Perinatal Anxiety and Depression Awareness and, in 2019, the theme for the week (which runs from 10th to 16th November) is “let’s get real”. It’s a theme which aims to focus the minds of all Australians on the reality that perinatal anxiety and depression are common and serious. Indeed, as a measure of exactly how common they are, it’s worth noting that around 1 in 5 new or expecting mothers and up to 1 in 10 new fathers are likely to suffer from anxiety and/or depression within the period from a child’s conception to 12 months after their birth.
Question without Notice- TAFE access
My question is to the Minister for Training and Skills, Minister Tierney. There are more than 82,000 students across Victoria currently sitting VCE exams. We know that, even amid the elation of finishing secondary school, many young people will face an anxious time as they seek entry into further education or fields of employment that require successful completion of specific subjects.
