- Tasmania: Roads (1 speech)
Light-fingered Labor has been caught out again. Last month's federal budget left Tasmania off the map. Whilst Tassie was thrown a few crumbs, they were nowhere near enough to compensate locals... - National Disability Insurance Scheme (1 speech)
At the Dunkley office, one of the issues we receive a lot of questions about is the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the NDIS. People are keen to understand the pending changes because, when... - Southern Moreton Bay Islands (1 speech)
The islands of Moreton Bay are one of Australia's hidden gems, but for far too long they've been so well hidden that they have missed out on funding from all levels of government. When the Labor... - Surf Life Saving WA Nipper and Youth Awards (1 speech)
The annual Surf Life Saving WA Nipper and Youth Awards are a way to recognise and celebrate the outstanding achievements of our nippers and youth members across Western Australia. We have three... - Television Sports Broadcasts (1 speech)
Imagine if you had needed a paid subscription to watch Matilda's history-making penalty shootout last year. It's unthinkable, right? It's the 'brick wall' behind a paywall. But under Labor's new... - Corangamite Electorate: Country Women's Association (1 speech)
Barwon Heads is so well represented by the local women of the Country Women's Association. These inspirational women are such a breath of fresh air—full of enthusiasm and innovative ideas... - National Legal Assistance Partnership (1 speech)
Last week the government finally released the Independent review of the National Legal Assistance Partnership report. It included 39 welcome recommendations—most notably for an urgent... - Boothby Electorate: Volunteers (1 speech)
I'd like to congratulate 19 fantastic volunteer-based organisations that have recently been awarded volunteer grants in my electorate of Boothby. Congratulations to: Blackwood Reconciliation... - Energy Prices (1 speech)
Give me a two, give me a seven, give me a five—put them all together and what have you got? You've got another broken promise from the Albanese government. There's no $275 reduction coming... - Wages (1 speech)
Yesterday we saw some great news out of the Fair Work Commission. The commission backed the government's call for a pay rise for Australian workers—2.6 million workers on the minimum wage... - Durack Electorate: Volunteer Grants (1 speech)
It gives me great pleasure to talk about some of the wonderful volunteer organisations in the seat of Durack. I recently announced the very worthy Durack recipients of the 2023-24 volunteer... - Wages, Taxation (1 speech)
Now that we are more than a full 24 hours after the Fair Work Commission handed down its annual wage review, like each successive annual wage review under the Albanese Labor government, it saw... - South Australia: Black Summer Bushfires, Edithburgh Sports and Community Club (2 speeches)
2019-20 is seen now as the Black Summer fires. The majority of the fires—the worst, of course—were centred in New South Wales, but we had our problems in South Australia as well. The... - Taxation (1 speech)
Everyone who pays tax in Aston will receive a tax cut on 1 July, and award workers in Aston now know that, on the same date, they will also get a pay rise. It's a 3.75 per cent increase, which... - Sturt Electorate: Australia Post (1 speech)
I take this opportunity to raise the deep concerns in my electorate about the closure of Australia Post post offices. In particular, recently we have been informed that the Campbelltown Post... - Australian Greens (1 speech)
I sat in this chamber when the leader of the Greens political party, who is present today, accused Labor MPs of being complicit in genocide. Within hours, an online campaign was launched calling... - Housing (1 speech)
We have yet more problems with the government's ill-conceived and troubled Housing Australia Future Fund. We already know that the Prime Minister's pledge to build 40,000 affordable homes through... - Liberal Party of Australia, Albanese Labor Government (1 speech)
The Liberal Party have come up with a solution, and I'm not talking about nuclear. This is a solution that is much less fissionable. Their solution is Josh Frydenberg. I'm left wondering that if... - Energy (1 speech)
You may have noticed over the last few weeks that the Minister for Climate Change and Energy has been very active in the media, calling—in a very undignified and desperate way—for the... - Budget (2 speeches)
Labor's latest budget has once again made clear the choice between Labor and the Liberals. Labor knows that Australians are facing cost-of-living pressures, and in budget after budget we've had...
