 Paul EDBROOKE (Frankston) (09:59): It is my pleasure to get up today and talk about the honour of being the member for Frankston again and re-elected so comprehensively. Our community voted for action; they voted for a state representative that cares about integrity, cares about the environment and cares about our community. We made several commitments to our community which turned out to be very, very popular with voters in our area: FDBA – Frankston and District Basketball Association; the Mount Erin College, Overport Primary School, Aldercourt Primary School and Mahogany Rise Primary School redevelopments; the David Scott School redevelopment; the massive commitment to remove all level crossings on the Frankston line; a new PET scanner for Frankston Hospital; $20,000 for Frankston Scouts; supporting the Frankston breakfast club; of course four-year-old kinder in Frankston, which is amazing; and a new tech school in Frankston. We also committed $11.7 million for a redevelopment of the Mount Eliza North Primary School, which I know the member for Mornington will be very, very excited about. That is under a Labor government.
