With COVID-19 highlighting the ability to work more remotely, it is now time to challenge the status quo, and put in measures to help revitalise our regions. There are so many jobs available in a range of different industries, so why not work from our regions?
Regions crying out for hundreds of workers ift.tt/3kbOCyl

It was good to have Premier @marshall_steven on the Eyre Peninsula again last week. The EP has so much upside with agriculture, aquaculture, fishing and tourism as key drivers which can excel even more with strategic State government decision making. Less politics, more progress!

EYRE PENINSULA FARMERS: GM survey To help the EP Councils understand the perspective of our farming businesses on GM crop production, please take the time to do this quick survey. It will help to ensure greater knowledge to back any decision making. Thanks surveymonkey.com/r/B5L9G22

Whilst we normally welcome with open arms in our regions, we are asking you to Stay Home this Easter & school holidays. Our small regional communities do not have the medical and social structures to support any more people in the event of a COVID outbreak, so please Stay Home.
Isolation for farmers isn’t new, but some additional measures are

Thank you Minister. Important changes to help Local Government deal with these unprecedented challenges. As a level of government, Councils must recognise the important community leadership role we play and recognise the need to work with State and Fed to take all necessary steps
The Local Govt amendments have passed both houses today. Thank you to all parties and especially the @LGAofSA for working together to keep councils up and running, this is all part of our plan to deal with Covid 19 and keep our community strong and functioning

The potential of a deep-water multi-commodity port at Cape Hardy has been long-recognised. It‘s very exciting to see the Federal Government allocating some funds toward it. This multi-user port will open up the potential of many other industries across SA adelaidenow.com.au/news/sout…

It is incredible that a State Government can have the audacity to make a decision like this which will result in .5-1% council rate increases for our communities, while also criticising Councils about rates. Giving with one hand, taking with two...
South Australian ratepayers will be slugged an additional $8.5 million through a whopping 40% increase to the Solid Waste Levy, announced in the 2019/20 State Budget. bit.ly/2KoJzNv
