I wish to update the House on a variety of goings on in my electorate of Hasluck. Last week I had the great opportunity to welcome three ministers to my electorate. Minister for Health Sussan Ley attended a roundtable of my local GPs and visited both the public and private hospitals in the suburban precinct of Midland. The roundtable involved valuable discussion on patient volume, oral health, Medicare and private health insurance. I was delighted to show Minister Ley, who is also the Minister for Sport, the reinvigorated baseball facilities of Barbagallo Park. Thank you to Perth Heat for giving Minister Ley and me the opportunity to take a swing in the batting cage.

Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for the Environment, Bob Baldwin, was a welcome guest at our Green Army project sites. Minister Baldwin and I had a discussion with Kalamunda Shire executives and even pulled out a few weeds along the way. Nevertheless, Bob was happy to move along to the next meeting when the dirt digging started.

Minister for Justice, Michael Keenan, also visited my electorate of Hasluck to announce funding for local schools as part of the coalition's $18 million Schools Security Program. Minister Keenan and I then participated in a roundtable on crime prevention awareness attended by, amongst others, Forrestfield police and Neighbourhood Watch. The visit finished with the announcement of CCTV funding for the City of Swan. This is a proactive crime prevention initiative to keep our streets safer and a welcome addition for Hasluck. These are just a few of the significant events that happened in the suburbs of Hasluck.
