Constituency questions

Kororoit electorate


Luba GRIGOROVITCH

Kororoit electorate

Luba GRIGOROVITCH (Kororoit) (14:49): (247) My question is for the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. This will come as no surprise to people in this house, but the western suburbs, particularly in my electorate of Kororoit, are among the fastest growing areas in Victoria. As the member for Melton knows, as we share parts of the boundary of the Melton LGA, it is the fastest growing municipality in the country – not just Victoria, but the country. Close to 60 babies per week are being born in the Melton LGA. With the employment precinct being developed in Kororoit, I am pleased to say that 19,000 jobs are projected to be created and more than 25,000 new residents are expected to move into this area by 2051. Can the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure please tell me what investments are being made on the Melton line to cater for this fast-growing community?
