Just after the Women’s World Cup wraps up, the Matildas will head to WA as part of three double-header fixtures to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Let’s give Sam and the Matildas the reception they deserve.

We're only able to deliver this kind of targeted cost of living support because of our responsible financial management and our decision to keep our energy assets in public hands.

The strong result has been underpinned by women finding full-time employment growing by more than 10% over the past 12 months - a terrific result.

We promised to build the Morley-Ellenbrook line – and my Government is delivering. Today marks the biggest milestone on the project to date, with the first tracks being laid on the METRONET Morley-Ellenbrook Line.

It’s all part of our once in a generation METRONET project – which is slashing travel times, improving safety and building strong communities while creating thousands of local jobs and opportunities for local business.
