The Burdekin Electorate is the powerhouse of the Queensland economy and for the 55,948 people who currently call it their home, it is an electorate they can justifiably be proud of.

I am incredibly honoured to not only be able to call this great electorate home, but for a fourth time to be elected as your representative in the Queensland Parliament.   I want to say a big thank you to all those residents who put their faith in me during the recent election.   

I would also like to take the time to acknowledge the countless volunteers who took time out of their day to support my campaign during challenging conditions.   I’d also like to thank my staff in my electorate office and my family for their support.

For years this electorate has given more than its fair share of the pie, from our industries to our communities and you deserve to continue to have a strong voice in your corner.

As the Member for Burdekin, my focus is to continue delivering for this electorate and that starts with keeping my promises to you.

I know how much it will mean to emergency patients at the Ayr Hospital to access potentially life-saving CT scans without needing to be transferred 100km up the road, or for our grassroots netball players to experience a game on new courts, under bright lights and with a new club house. I’ve watched this community get behind our firefighters as we called for a new fire station so I know how much it will mean to each of you to see our frontline staff finally have the home they deserve.

There is certainly plenty of work to be done and the LNP have committed to getting to work with plans to legislate Making Queensland Safer laws including Adult Crime, Adult Time and putting victims first.

As always my electorate staff and I remain committed to helping you with a wide range of issues, so please do not hesitate to contact the Burdekin Electorate Office if you need assistance.
