24.01.2022 Great to join Anne Monceaux - Mayor of Burnside and the team at the Conyngham Street Mens Shed this morning.

24.01.2022 Congratulations to Sturt constituent Professor Peter Vietch, part of the team that has been awarded the top prize in the Prime Minister’s 2020 Prizes for Science for discovering gravitational waves.

21.01.2022 Today, the Government’s Job-ready Graduates legislation passed the Parliament, creating more university places from next year and making it cheaper to study subjects in areas of expected job growth. This will create up to 30,000 additional university places for Australian students next year, when combined with the 12,000 places announced in Tuesday’s Budget. Australia’s economic recovery will be built on our strengths, and that includes a highly skilled workforce.

20.01.2022 Good call Premier Steven Marshall. It’s early days but this is great news. A heartfelt thanks for the efforts and cooperation of South Australians. Well done to... you all. I’m encouraged to see the temporary restrictions not lasting one moment longer than necessary, as promised. Looking forward to seeing SA back to work and open again on Sunday. Practicing #COVIDSafe social behaviours along with strong testing, tracing and a strong local health response will enable SA to now stay ahead of the virus. So please stay COVIDSafe, pay attention to news from the SA Government and SA Health, so we can all keep saving lives, and saving livelihoods in SA and across the country.

Thank you to Mark, David, Robert and the team for your hospitality!
