Dr Mallee! There are some exciting things going on in the electorate of Mallee. There is more work to be done. I'll continue to advocate and fight for an indoor basketball sports stadium for the people of Mildura. It gets pretty damn hot in Mildura at times—

An honourable member interjecting—

And cold, but very hot. Those kids deserve to be able to run around and play basketball, so I'm going to be fighting very hard for that. I'd like to see Donaldson Park done in Loddon. I'd like to see the Mitiamo stock and domestic pipeline done. I'd like to see the East Grampians pipeline system done. I would also like to see a riverfront redevelopment done in Swan Hill. There is much to be done. It's a great part of the world. Come up to north-west Victoria. If you're in Melbourne, get out of cold Melbourne and come up to Mildura and get yourself an orange. The electorate of Mallee continues to get bigger. But, not only does it continue to get bigger; it continues to get better and, as a result of this redistribution, I will serve it to the best of my capacity.
