My Commitment
Working to make things better for everyone in our community for many years has been the motivation at the heart of my work.
I strive to be a Parliamentary representative who provides a voice of leadership on women’s issues and fights for a Tasmania that is an exemplar of equity, safety and opportunity for everyone.
As the member for Nelson, I am committed to applying a gender lens to all legislation that comes before me in the Legislative Council.

Issues affecting women
We can and must do better to address:
- Women’s workforce participation, including the gender pay gap.
- Women’s financial security, including the prevalence of women in part-time or casual insecure work and women’s superannuation.
- Violence against women, including access to legal services, personal support and housing.
- Women’s health and wellbeing, including timely access to health services and reproductive rights.
- Women’s homelessness, including access to public and social housing, better protection of tenant’s rights, more crisis housing services.
- Support for carers, including in the areas of elder care, disability care, and kinship care.
