Ryan Community Survey

As your MP for Ryan, I represent more than 150,000 local residents. Closely consulting locals and being accessible to anyone keen to provide input or feedback has always been one of my most important priorities since I was elected. It’s why my team and I run community events every single week, to ensure you always have a chance to share your feedback. I have run surveys on people’s local priorities, phone and internet services, transport needs, and other issues which have helped shape my priorities.

As 2024 draws to a close, and we head into an election year, I’m running another community survey. My team and I want to reach as many people as possible and hope your input can help shape the kind of priorities and goals I’ll set for my second term, should I have the honour and privilege to continue as your MP.

All of the data from this survey will be kept strictly confidential and de-identified and will only be used to inform me and the Ryan Electorate Office of local residents’ priorities.
