The action that I seek is for the Minister for Small Business to visit the shopping strips of Northcote and Fairfield to meet and hear from our local traders and celebrate their achievements.

It is an honour to stand here as part of a re-elected Andrews Labor government to represent Northcote once again.

My adjournment is to the Minister for Mental Health. I ask the minister to arrange a briefing for me with her department to discuss progress towards finalising Victoria’s new eating disorder strategy and delivering our first residential treatment centre for eating disorders.

My question is to the Minister for Public Transport, and I ask for the latest information on the major public transport upgrades underway in the Northcote electorate.

We will deliver improvements like new boarding ramps, new tactile ground surface indicators and upgrades to the PA system and CCTV.

I am pleased to rise today in support of the Building and Planning Legislation Amendment Bill 2022.

The action I seek is that the minister join me in my electorate of Northcote for the official opening of Preston South Primary School’s brand new facilities.

Could the minister please indicate what kind of benefits Victorians, including constituents in my electorate of Northcote, can expect to see from the government bringing back the SEC?
