  • Impact North (1 speech)
    Last month I attended Impact North's 2026 Business Builder graduation ceremony on Larrakia country in Darwin. Shannon Motlop is growing Aboriginal community harvest through native foods and...
  • Economy (1 speech)
    The Treasurer is duchessing the constituency, coalescing creditworthiness with prosperity—dangerous. The big three credit agencies measure one thing only: a government's willingness and...
  • Road Safety (1 speech)
    Few responsibilities are more important than keeping children safe on their journey to and from school. In my electorate of Sturt, 25 schools will benefit from new 40-kilometre-per-hour school...
  • Data Centres (1 speech)
    We are on the cusp of a massive data centre invasion across regional Australia. The tech billionaires think our country communities are fair game, and parliament is asleep at the wheel. I was out...
  • Daniel Morcombe Foundation (1 speech)
    Every parent knows the feeling of wanting to keep their children safe. But, for Bruce and Denise Morcombe, the unimaginable happened, when their 13-year-old son, Daniel, was abducted and murdered...
  • Victoria: Business (1 speech)
    Labor is obviously very bad for business. Today we've seen inflation rise. We've seen 17 interest rate hikes and we've had capital gains tax changes and changes to trusts and negative gearing....
  • Women in Parliament (1 speech)
    There's a lot that comes with being an elected representative. Most of it is incredible—the people who let you into their worlds; the chance to provide help and support; the moment when an...
  • Prime Minister (1 speech)
    'Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.' Walter Scott's words come to mind when I look at the mess the Prime Minister has found himself in this week over the...
  • Reserve Bank of Australia (1 speech)
    Inflation is 4.3 per cent. Unemployment is 4.7 per cent. Every time inflation rises, some people seem to think there is only one answer—raise interest rates. But the Reserve Bank has two...
  • Prime Minister (1 speech)
    I outlined in my very first speech to this House back on 30 July last year that we as elected representatives need to lead from the front and be positive role models like our mums and dads, our...
  • Mental Health (1 speech)
    All MPs would have received an email this week from Nieves Murray of Suicide Prevention Australia telling us that in 2025 3,283 Australians died by suicide. Male suicide has decreased slightly...
  • Prime Minister (1 speech)
    Across our nation, Australians are being let down by a prime minister who says one thing but does another. Mr Albanese promised Australians they'd be better off under Labor. Instead, they are...
  • Online Safety Amendment (Digital Duty of Care) Bill 2026 (1 speech)
    There are times in our lives when we're part of something bigger than us, bigger than this room—part of something that's truly transformational and nation-building. Today is one of those...
  • Prime Minister (1 speech)
    For democracy to succeed, people need to be able to trust their government. They need to be able to trust that if a government promises that their energy bills are going to be $275 cheaper as a...
  • Mental Health (1 speech)
    We often hear that blokes don't talk about their mental health, but what if we're simply not making it easy enough for them? TIACS, which stands for This Is A Conversation Starter, is proving...
  • Prime Minister (1 speech)
    Australians deserve honest leadership, not a prime minister who repeatedly breaks his promise. First, he promised $275 off power bills. Then it was no changes to capital gains tax or negative...
  • Online Safety Amendment (Digital Duty of Care) Bill 2026 (1 speech)
    No-one would expect to see harmful content on their television, in print media or at the cinema. You'd never see deepfake news in the paper nor would you see instructions on how to commit suicide...
  • Economy (1 speech)
    What doesn't the Treasurer understand? He said we'd turn the inflation corner—12 months on 16 rate hikes later and $30,000 in higher mortgage repayments and Australians are drowning in the...
  • Housing (2 speeches)
    One of the great legacies of this government is that we are backing first home buyers into their first home, because each and every year, at the moment, over 100,000 Australian households are...
