I would like to congratulate the Nabiac Show Society for putting on a great 2015 Nabiac Show. I would like to compliment Cherie Paterson, David Reeve and other members of the committee. I am pleased to say that I was joined by the member for Myall Lakes, Stephen Bromhead, who has been doing a fantastic job for the electors of the Myall Lakes electorate. At the Camden Haven Show I was accompanied by Mrs Leslie Williams, who has been a brilliant advocate for the people of the Port Macquarie electorate.

Melinda Pavey is taking over from Andrew Stoner as the candidate for the Oxley electorate. Andrew Stoner has performed a magnificent job for the people of New South Wales and, in particular, for the people of the Oxley electorate. Melinda Pavey has 12 years experience in the upper house of the New South Parliament. What a great advocate she will be for the Oxley electorate. Michael Johnsen, who is the candidate for the electorate of Upper Hunter has had eight years in local government, has been involved in political decisions and is very experienced in the commercial world. He has been campaigning very hard to continue the good work of George Souris after 26 years in state parliament. The people in my electorate of Lyne, with four state electorates, have excellent candidates available to represent them at the New South Wales election on Saturday. I can commend all of them to the electors. The New South Wales government has done a great job getting New South Wales back on track and being the No. 1 state in the Commonwealth. (Time Expired)
