Yesterday, it was a privilege and an honour to be sworn in as the Minister for Environment and Heritage.

I committed to being a champion for the environment and climate change.  The work of my predecessor Minster Kean has been courageous and visionary and I look forward to maintaining his tempo.

I promise to serve the people of NSW in these roles with the same vigour, determination and dedication as I do in my role as the Member for Manly.

Onwards and Upwards.

A new vision for Manly Cove is taking shape with plans released for an upgrade to the iconic Manly Wharf 3 and a new plan for the former Manly Sea Life site.

The community is being asked to contribute ideas, with both designs on display for public feedback and comment until 5pm Friday 28 January 2022.

Member for Manly, James Griffin MP said the much-needed Manly Wharf 3 upgrade will include improved access for mobility impaired customers and those with prams, as well as increased protection for commuters from wind, rain and sun.

Major works are due to begin next week on the $19.5 million Adolescent and Young Adult Hospice, marking a significant milestone for the unique facility.

Health Minister Brad Hazzard and Member for Manly James Griffin MP visited the site to inspect progress ahead of the first major concrete pour.

“This incredible project is Australia’s first dedicated hospice caring for young people with life-limiting illness and will provide support to families from all over NSW,” Mr Hazzard said.
