Thanks for visiting my website.  By using the menu above you can get a glimpse of my work as a Member of the NSW Parliament. 

One of the most frequently visited sections of the site are the media pages.  There are dozens of them dating from the last election in March 2007. And I have listed a few of the latest press releases at left and you can find more by following the links.

A number of local issues are concerning North Shore voters at present, none more pressing than the Keneally Government's proposed cuts to ferry services.  I have written to those who have contacted me and if you would like to read that letter I have published it here for your information. (ferry letter)  I have also prepared a petition which you may wish to print and sign.

Many people ask me what motivates me to work so strenuously to improve our health system, supporting the fantastic people who work in it and helping patients get the care they need.

When she signed the COAG Health Reforms in May this year, Premier Kristina Keneally promised that hospital services would improve from July 1. 

But I am still receiving calls from medical professionals and patients about difficulty in accessing hospital care.

So I've launched a webside titled "So what has Changed in Your Hospital" so you can have your say.  Feel free to visit and leave a comment.

My contact details can be found by clicking on contact in the menu at the top of the page or you can fill out and submit a prepared survey form. Print it out and fax it back or post it. Click HERE to download the survey in Acrobat *.pdf format.

All correspondence will be treated with confidentiality.

Best wishes

Jillian
