As this may be the last sitting week before the upcoming federal election, I wish to thank the electors of Moore for the great honour and privilege of representing our community for the past four parliamentary terms, stretching over nearly 12 years. After 30 years with the Liberal Party, political circumstances almost identical to the 1996 election in Moore caused me to move to the crossbench at the start of this year, and I will contest the next election as an Independent.

Whilst I have an established track record of advocating for representing and delivering infrastructure and services for our community, there is still a lot more work to be done in realising my development vision for our community. My ongoing vision for the electorate is to develop our suburbs into a thriving city with modern amenities and a great place for families to live and prosper and to continue to evolve Joondalup, as a regional city centre, into a thriving centre of commerce, health care, innovation, advanced technology and higher education and into a hub of skilled employment.

This will only be possible with the continued support of the constituents of Moore, and I conclude by respectfully asking for your No. 1 vote on election day.
