Supported the bill as Minister for Sport, citing youth crime impacts in his electorate of Everton including home invasions and cars being stolen, and welcoming a staffed police beat at Brookside Shopping Centre.
“I constantly received representations from local businesses in that centre that talked about gangs of youths freely walking around the place, wandering in to retail outlets taking what they liked and walking out knowing that there would be no consequences.”— 2026-04-22View Hansard
Supported the bills, thanking the Treasurer for funding projects in his Everton electorate including the South Pine Road/Stafford Road intersection, local sporting clubs, and the Games On! and Play On! sporting voucher programs.
“In summary, I congratulate the Treasurer and thank him for the money that I am getting for my electorate and thank him for the money that I am getting in my ministry. I commend the bills to the House.”— 2026-03-26View Hansard
