A LOCAL we can count on

"It is an honour to represent the Electorate of Cessnock in the NSW Parliament."

Our residents absolutely deserve the best possible services and facilities, so I’ll always fight to have local priorities delivered by the State Government.

To help me stay in touch with the many different communities I welcome you to my website and invite your participation.

As the NSW State Member for the Electorate of Cessnock, I am always fighting to have local priorities delivered by the State Government.

Cheers Clayton

About Our Electorate

Priorities

Education and Jobs

We need to make sure our local people have a broad range of opportunities in life. That means we have to fight for well-funded local schools, and a TAFE system that offers people affordable, high quality qualifications close to home.

Health and Hospitals

Our local hospitals and health services should be just good as those in Sydney or any other part of the state. I’m always campaigning for more resources for our doctors and nurses, which means shorter waiting times and more treatment options for the rest of us.

Law and Order

As our area grows, our local services need the resources to keep up. That includes our Police. Speeding up Police response times and making our community safer are priorities for me as your local MP.
