Meet your Federal Member of Parliament in the Mallee…
People in the Murray Mallee towns of Peake, Geranium, Lameroo and Pinnaroo will this Thursday have the chance to meet with their local Member for Barker, Patrick Secker MP.
Mr Secker will spend a short amount of time at a prominent location in each of the towns, to give constituents the opportunity to chat with their local Member first-hand.
“Hopefully, it will also give the people from these towns to chance to ask me some questions, and give them an understanding of what has been achieved by this Federal Government in my last three terms in office, and what can be achieved into the future in the event that the Howard Government is re-elected,” he said.
Mr Secker said representing an electorate spanning more than 64 thousand square kilometres in size and made up of a diverse mix of production industries including beef and dairy cattle, sheep, fishing, cropping, forestry, timber, paper products, wine, fresh and dried fruit, vegetables, transport and tourism, was no easy challenge. But he said he remained committed to the opinion that he has been charged with the task of representing one of the best seats in the country and he was looking forward to continuing in the role into the future.
“People often ask me why I am a politician and whether I like the job, and I have to say that I love being in a position where I can help people, listen to their ideas and have some influence on policy-making, as well as getting grants for my electorate of Barker,” Mr Secker said.
“I am really looking forward to meeting with constituents in Peake, Geranium, Lameroo and Pinnaroo and encourage as many to come along as possible.”
