I would like to take to take this opportunity to put on the record the considerable development in my electorate that is going ahead and the $55 million of infrastructure that is being put in place by this Labor government in the area of health: $28 million for our cancer clinic, one of 26 cancer clinics around this country, because it is only a Labor government that responded to the reality of Australians dying in the bush and the regions—we put in 26 regional cancer clinics, and I am proud to say that we have got one in Robertson; $7 million for our GP superclinic, which is about to open; and also $21 million to bring back to life the Woy Woy rehab centre, a fantastic community facility. All of these things are possible, and only possible, because this is a Labor government governing for the advantage of Australians.
