Constituency questions

Mornington electorate


Mornington electorate

Chris CREWTHER (Mornington) (14:48): (948) My question is to the Minister for Planning. What is the minister doing to support owners and residents at 5 Culcairn Drive in Frankston South, many of whom have been forced to move out and some of whom are now Mornington electorate constituents? This now marks the eighth time I have raised this in Parliament and the 11th time that members overall have raised this issue, yet so far we have seen little to no action from the Minister for Planning. The member for Frankston finally – under pressure – raised this back in August, but still nothing has happened. The member for Brighton and I met with the residents earlier this year, and I first called for help for these residents way back in my first term in Parliament as the federal member for Dunkley in late 2018. These residents have been facing a living nightmare, with significant costs, cladding issues, balcony collapses, cracking and more. I call on Labor to take action.
