MEMBERS STATEMENT

‘BAYSIDE AGAINST CRIME RALLY’.

Wednesday, 19 February 2025.

Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (09:48):

Hundreds of Bayside residents rallied at a community walk along Hampton Street in Hampton, calling for action to make our streets safe again.

Bayside knows that the State Labor Government has ignored the crime crisis and refused to act.

Residents at the rally called for tougher action on fixing the catch-and-release bail system and an increase to police resources in our community and want offenders to face consequences for their actions.

This Government is ignoring crime.
