The highest responsibility of government is to protect the physical safety of its citizens.

Charles Frew is one of Ku‑ring‑gai's quietly influential citizens whose positive impact has been, and continues to be, immeasurable.

Andrew is a magnificent role model for young men and women in Ku-ring-gai and his efforts for the homeless are an inspiring example to us all.

Ku-ring-gai is the home of many people who have been successful in the arts.

If ever this Labor Opposition were in government, it would not only expose our State to sovereign risk but also destroy our economy.

The Treasurer today delivered a momentous budget that will do exceptional things for this State. It is a budget that should be applauded.

Jim Huckerby and Bronwyn Wilson are respected by their peers and loved by their communities and we are fortunate to have them in Ku-ring-gai.

Labor members can never be trusted to run this State because only the Liberal Party believes in true freedom, diversity and democracy.

The bill will cost taxpayers and premium holders across NSW more than $1.5 billion, which cost would inevitably be passed on to consumers.

The reforms in the bill will deliver a more consistent administrative compliance and enforcement approach to gas and electricity safety.

I wholeheartedly endorse Bill Hosking QC's call that we must never fail to be vigilant in protecting the rights of individuals.

The men and women who have served in conflicts overseas have taught us that we must respect human life and each other.
