17 May 2017 Benalla Ensign, Benalla VIC (General News) Member for Northern Victoria Jaclyn Symes (pictured left) last week announced she had again been pre-selected for the next State election. Ms Symes issued the following statement: As a proud country Labor Member of the Victorian State Parliament in the Legislative Council, I have today been preselected by the Australian Labor Party as a candidate for the Northern Victoria region for the 2018 state election. I would like to thank the many Labor Party members, colleagues and community members who have encouraged me to continue my work representing the best parts of Victoria from Mildura to Corryong to Healesville to Heathcote. Im very proud of what I and the Andrews government are delivering for Northern Victoria, under Labor it is now easier to get into the housing market, expand your business and like me raise your family in country Victoria. Whether it is rebuilding our schools like Benalla P-12 College, Seymour College or Echuca Primary schools, investing in our hospitals including those in Shepparton, Wangaratta and Albury/Wodonga, supporting farmers and producers to access the market, creating jobs and boosting tourism opportunities with funding projects, such as the north east cycling infrastructure or improving train services, Labor is delivering for Northern Victoria and I will continue to work hard for the country communities I represent.
