Today I announced almost $600,000 in funding for regional airports within the Nicholls electorate as part of the Federal Government’s Regional Airports Program. These crucial upgrades will allow for a greater number and more modern range of medical and emergency aircraft to land locally. Across Australia, more than 6000 emergency evacuations are facilitated by regional airports every year. More details are available on my website. #regionsmatter #improud

As a massive sports fan, I'm hugely excited that Australia and NZ have won the right to host the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. Not only will the six-week event provide a $500 million boost to economic activity, it will give our next generation of female soccer stars a front row seat to their idols. If I could do a backflip, I would. #improud

I encourage dairy farmers across the Nicholls electorate to apply for a grant of up to $20,000 for energy efficient projects. The grants will support dairy farming businesses to replace existing equipment, install or replace a component to help an existing system run more efficiently, carry out on-farm energy audits or energy efficiency investment feasibility studies, and monitor energy use and emissions. More details are available on my website. #regionsmatter #improud

As some local sport prepares for a long-awaited restart, I encourage football and netball teams across the Nicholls electorate to apply for a WorkSafe Victoria grant of up to $5000. The money must be spent on health and safety initiatives, such as goal post padding, first aid kits or defibrillators. Applications close June 28. More information is available on the AFL Victoria and Netball Victoria websites. #regionsmatter #improud

I sat down recently with journalist Morgan Dyer to discuss my priorities for the next 12 months. High on the list is making the Shepparton bypass a reality, but Victoria's Labor Government continues to stall this game changing project.
