It is a great honour and a privilege to be elected for a fourth term as the Member for Nanango. I am very humbled, and sincerely thank my community for putting their faith in me. I took on this role to make a difference in our regional areas, and I will continue to fight for our fair share in the Nanango Electorate.

There is so much opportunity right here, but it needs backing with better roads, better health services and less red and green tape for our primary producers and small business. This is what I’ll be working to achieve for our Nanango Electorate communities – right across the South Burnett, Somerset, northern Toowoomba, Cherbourg and western Gympie areas. I’ll continue to work hard each and every day because I love this area, and the people who call our beautiful part of the world home.

I am also looking forward to my new role as the Shadow Minister for Water and the Construction of Dams, Shadow Minister for Regional Development and Manufacturing. Now more than ever Queensland needs to be at the forefront of new manufacturing, water supply and unleashing the potential of regional Queensland.
