 Josh BULL (Sunbury) (15:56): It is terrific to be back in the Parliament with you, Deputy Speaker, and many others, delivering things that matter to the local community. Speaking of such, the government recently appointed Spowers Architects to design the new $25 million Sunbury TAFE in partnership with Kangan Batman. This is outstanding news and very warmly welcomed by the community, and locals cannot wait to see this new facility delivered by the Allan Labor government. Of course this stands in stark contrast to gutting TAFE. We on this side have invested heavily in TAFE, and our local community is very excited about what is to come.

2025, like 2024, will be a huge year for the electorate. This government will open new facilities at Goonawarra Primary School, open new facilities at Diggers Rest, remove two level crossings in Diggers Rest and start construction our brand new senior citizens centre, and that is not to mention – member for Frankston, I know you are excited about it – the delivery of the TAFE. What this will mean of course is the delivery of training and skills and new opportunities for people within my community and an opportunity for them to get the job they want. This is something that only Labor will deliver.
