Adjournment
Monbulk electorate youth advisory group
Monbulk electorate youth advisory group
Daniela DE MARTINO (Monbulk) (19:03): (442) My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Youth, and the action I seek is for the minister to join me here in Parliament to speak with members from my youth advisory group, or YAG. I have the privilege of working closely with this dedicated group of young individuals from my local community. Our Monbulk YAG comprises young people aged up to 21 years living, working and studying in the Dandenong Ranges and meets to advise me on pressing local and global issues that impact our younger generation and what we can do to help change things. I would greatly appreciate the minister’s presence in Parliament to engage directly with these insightful young minds. Their perspectives on matters affecting them directly are invaluable, and additionally I look forward to speaking with my young constituents on what the government and minister’s vision is for ensuring young people are heard and respected right across government.
