Representing Flynn in the Federal Parliament
The electorate of Flynn is over 132,000 square kilometres and is almost twice the size of Tasmania.
It stretches from the Central Highlands to the West, Gracemere to the North, Gladstone to the East and Wondai to the South while taking in the towns in between.
I drive over 50,000 kilometres a year staying in touch with our local communities and spend around 20 weeks in Canberra representing you in Parliament.
My electorate offices are open in the following locations to service the large Flynn electorate:
I’m committed to taking Flynn forward.

Australians diagnosed with a type of metastatic breast cancer will now have access to a life prolonging treatment under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) from 1 September 2024.
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu®) will be expanded on the PBS to provide a new treatment option for patients who have been diagnosed with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-low unresectable or metastatic breast cancer.
Breast cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer in Australia and is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women, with around 58 Australians diagnosed every day.
Sadly, 1 in 7 Australian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.
Last year, more than 3,000 Australians died from breast cancer, or 9 people every day.
Unresectable or metastatic breast cancer is an advanced stage of cancer that cannot be removed surgically or has spread to other parts of the body. HER2-low breast cancer is a newly defined type of breast cancer that expresses low levels of the HER2 protein but is still responsive to targeted therapies such as Enhertu.
Enhertu works by directly targeting the HER2 proteins expressed by this type of cancer and kills the cancer cells.
Around 1,700 Australians are expected to benefit from this listing each year, who without subsidy, might pay more than $160,000 for a course of treatment.
This PBS listing will mean that eligible patients will pay a maximum of $31.60 per script or just $7.70 with a concession card. ... See MoreSee Less
