The Nationals Member for Gippsland South, Danny O'Brien is continuing to make himself available to all his constituents with regular visits in the form of mobile offices and listening posts right across his electorate. Mr O'Brien was in Korumburra and Kongwak for his most recent mobile office where he met with locals to discuss a broad range of state government issues including planning, public transport and roads.

Connecting with communities

Mr O'Brien said, "I was really grateful to the residents of Korumburra, Kongwak and surrounds for making the time to meet with me and let me know about the state government related matters that are important to them and other locals. I now have some work to do back in the office to follow-up and advocate on a number of these matters and look forward to doing so."

Mr O'Brien said a lot of people got used to online interaction during the pandemic, but that isn't always suitable and he is determined to make himself available for face-to-face appointments wherever possible. "The best way to understand people's issues is to visit the community and see the concerns first-hand."

"I'm out and about in Gippsland South all the time, but these mobile offices and listening posts are an important opportunity for people to meet with me and know they have my full attention to discuss what matters to them," he said.
