Londonderry And Mount Druitt State Seats Transport Forum

It it here finally!Since our  blog on 15/12/10 on holding a Mount Druitt Transport Forum/Information - we have been searching high and low for an under cover venue to hold a 'Mount Druitt and Londonderry Transport Information/forum'. Initially I was thinking to include Mulgoa State Seat as well but as this is the first for Mount Druitt (that I know of), by a voluntary group - this will be e litmus test for the future.

On behalf of the group we thank Mr Richard Amery (Member for Mount Druitt), giving us assistance in locating a venue and pointing us to the right direction. We hope this will be successful for all involved as there will be no official judging panel, just up to invited 250 members of the community listening, learning and understanding.

Transport is one of three political hot topics in the the State election coming! It is not just important for now, near future and our children's future! This will give every candidate a chance to provide there policies or improvement within Mount Druitt and surrounding suburbs.

So we have invited all candidates from both electorates  on the day at the West Tradies Club, Woodstock road, Dharruk, on 19th march 2011, commencing 10.30am.

We will update candidate's acceptance as we receive them - So here they are so far:

Dave Vincent            - Mount Druitt Seat                - Christian Democratic Party
