Supported the bill, arguing it delivers real worker safety free from union abuse, and that the underutilised, costly Land Access Ombudsman should be reformed by merging it with Coexistence Queensland.

Supported the bill, sharing examples of repeated business break-ins in Goondiwindi and a personal story from a constituent whose child's cycle of drug use and offending was worsened by the lack of consequences.
