Ms CHANEY (Curtin) (13:39): As the parliamentary year draws to a close, my thoughts turn to home and the power of the Curtin community. Almost three years ago, my community asked me to run for a seat in parliament and, in turn, I asked my community to get involved. Every week, for almost three years, they have stepped up. I want to thank my community for their engagement, which has directly shaped how I speak and how I vote. We've held 19 policy events on topics like housing, aged care, the cost of living and electrification. We've made eight community submissions on topics like fuel efficiency, plastics, online safety, transport and housing. We have community catch-ups every month and Canberra debriefs after each sitting week. My youth advisory group is an awesome team of committed and passionate 16-year-olds who are ready to make their voices heard. They're not just talking about the future; they're helping me shape it. Curtin's involvement allows me to treat every vote as a conscience vote. It allows me to change my vote in response to community opinion. No servant of a major party can do that. My community wants a better democracy, and this year again they got involved. So thank you, Curtin. It might have been my name on the annoying campaign posters, but it's been your voice in parliament.
