    Federal priorities for Western Australia April 2013 Keeping Western Australians on the move. Federal priorities for Western Australia Western Australia’s rapid population growth coupled with its strongly performing economy is creating significant challenges and pressures for the State and its people. Nowhere is this more obvious than on the State’s road and public transport networks. Kununurra In March 2013 the RAC released its modelling of projected growth in motor vehicle registrations which revealed that an additional one million motorised vehicles could be on Western Australia’s roads by the end of this decade. This growth, combined with significant developments in Derby and around the Perth CBD, is placing increasing strain on an already Great Northern Hwy Broome Fitzroy Crossing over-stretched transport network.

I begin by congratulating you on your appointment to the position of Deputy Speaker of the house and I also congratulate all those who were elected or re-elected on 9 March. To be afforded the privilege of representing the people of Joondalup, such a diverse and progressive electorate, is humbling to say the least, and I sincerely thank the people of the electorate of Joondalup for their faith in me to be our community spokesperson in this Parliament. I may at this point also acknowledge my predecessor, Mr Tony O’Gorman, who served the community of Joondalup for over 12 years. Whilst we may have differed in our vision for Joondalup’s future, there is no denying that Mr O’Gorman cared greatly for our community and its many establishments. I wish him and his family all the very best for the future. The electorate of Joondalup covers approximately 30 square kilometres, taking in the suburbs of Craigie, Beldon, Heathridge, Edgewater, Connolly, Joondalup CBD, Joondalup and parts of Currambine.
