 Mathew HILAKARI (Point Cook) (19:03): (432) My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Development Victoria, Minister for Precincts and Minister for Creative Industries, and the action that I seek is for the minister to join me in a visit to the East Werribee precinct. East Werribee is of course a large area of largely government owned land, and it includes the new Wyndham law courts. They are set to be the largest law courts outside of the CBD. This stands as a landmark development in this government’s commitment to invest in one of the largest growth areas in Victoria. The construction of the purpose-built law courts is in addition to and south of Hoppers Crossing station. The property includes the University of Melbourne, Victoria University and Gordon TAFE, as well as Suzanne Cory High School, Wyndham Tech School and the police complex, which was recently opened. This is a great opportunity in Melbourne’s west to build a thriving city. I look forward to the minister joining me in East Werribee and talking more about how we can improve this state. We have already put $2.8 million towards the planning process for this community, and I look forward to it.
