 Ms SPENCE (Yuroke) (19:10): (392) My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Youth, and the action I seek is for the minister to provide me with an update on how the Andrews Labor government is supporting young people in the Yuroke electorate. I am particularly interested to hear from the minister given members of my 2019 Yuroke Youth Advisory Council recently met for the first time this year.

Since I was elected in 2014 the Yuroke Youth Advisory Council has met each year and provided me with an opportunity to hear the concerns and ideas of young adults across the electorate, focusing on issues within the local community as well as broader issues that impact on young people across the state. I look forward to sharing the minister’s response with members of this year’s advisory council, and I hope that the minister will be able to join us for a future meeting.
