Hi, I’m Kat Theophanous - the Labor Member of Parliament for Northcote in the Victorian Legislative Assembly.
Northcote is a creative, clever, and compassionate community. It’s been my home for my whole life – and I will always fight for us.
As we grow, there are challenges and opportunities ahead – to tackle inequality and cost of living pressures, strengthen economic security and bring better balance to our lives.
As your MP for Northcote, I’m focused on delivering real action.
That means better healthcare and modern schools, secure jobs and thriving businesses, affordable housing and community facilities, and leading a rapid transition to renewable energy for a safe climate.
And as Parliamentary Secretary for Women's Health, I’m also proud to be working to progress the Labor Government’s work to improve women’s access to quality healthcare.
I believe in the power of community. So I’ll always listen and work with you to stand up for the things we care about.
Together, we can keep delivering a bright future for the inner north.
My adjournment is for the Minister for Consumer Affairs, and the action I seek is for the minister to provide me with an update on how the renting taskforce is working to monitor the market and inspect properties in my electorate of Northcote.
My question is for the Minister for Agriculture, and I ask: what is the Victorian government doing to progress the national guiding principles for assistance animal standards and policies?
Local councils directly impact people’s lives, and I want to put a few truths on the record about how the Greens councillors at Darebin and Yarra have conducted themselves in recent years.
My question is to the Minister for Energy and Resources, and I ask that she arrange a briefing for me on the progress of the Alphington neighbourhood battery.
Speaker, Victorians take drugs.
That is an undeniable reality and we cannot police it away.
Every day, every night, every suburb – Victorians are taking illicit drugs and they are rolling the dice on substances that they do not and cannot truly trust.
My question is to the Minister for Environment, and I ask what are the next steps the Victorian Government is taking to deliver an uplift to Merri Common in my Electorate of Northcote?
I rise to update the house on the exciting happenings in the Northcote electorate. In the heart of our suburbs.
