Welcome
For seven years (1999-2006) I had the honour of serving the
people of Victoria in the Upper House seat of
Melbourne
Province.
I
was proud to have been a member of the Bracks government with its
commitment to fairness and to working for all Victorians. One of
the Government’s most important achievements during my time in
Parliament was the reform of
the Legislative Council. The new voting system of proportional
representation ensures that your vote for your member in the
Legislative Council is more democratic. The second major change
was that the old boundaries of 22 provinces each with two members were
replaced at this election by eight provinces each with five
members. The third change is the introduction of fixed four-year
terms.
You can see the kind of
activity I undertook in the Parliament as a local member
working with the energy and commitment to serve local residents and
communities to address key issues facing them in the area I
represent.
I have also
included some useful links for more
information about the Parliament and the Government's plans for
Victoria, as well as a round up of issues,
news & events.
This website has been designed to let you know my record as a
parliamentarian and the values I still stand for. Please feel free to contact
me with your views and concerns.
Warm Regards, Glenyys Romanes
