BRI ONY LARGE ’S MAI DE N SPE ECH

INTRODUCTION

“Madam Speaker, First I would like to thank everyone for their support and strong show of encouragement throughout my campaign. I feel extremely privileged to be given this honour and I hope to bring some creative and outstanding ideas to the Capricornia electorate.”

ROADS

“Growing up in Central Queensland, the state of our roads have always been a concern for not only myself but the thousands of other residents who call this place home. The roads are simply not strong enough for not only the amount of traffic which drives through daily but also the unforgivable weather conditions that our region suffers through each year. My plan is to focus more on what is actually put into our roads and how it can be improved to achieve a better quality overall”

HEALTH CARE

“Everyone should have the opportunity for the best health treatments possible. I hope to offer more beneficial equipment to the region. In order for this to happen, I feel the government must know what the main health concerns and issues are for our region.”

COMMUNITY SERVICES

“I believe our local community services organisations should receive more recognition for their outstanding efforts. Many hard-working people continue to go on with their lives un-recognised for their achievements and duties they have acquired. This does need to change. An emphasise on working with suitable people to become volunteers should be made”

CONCLUSION

“I strive to create change for the better. I hope people will support me throughout my undertakings as the Federal member for Capricornia.”

“Thank you”
