SHADOW MINISTER FOR HOME AFFAIRS AND CYBER SECURITY
THE HON MELISSA PRICE MP
FEDERAL MEMBER FOR DURACK
$500,000 FOR CCTV IN GERALDTON AND MULLEWA
1 APRIL 2025
An elected Liberal Government will provide $500,000 from a revitalised Safer Communities Fund to install additional CCTV cameras in Geraldton and Mullewa.
Federal Member for Durack, Hon Melissa Price MP, said this funding would help ensure people in the Geraldton and Mullewa communities feel safer as they go about their daily lives.
"This funding is a direct response to the concerns raised by our community. I’ve heard first-hand from Geraldton and Mullewa residents that safety is a priority, and we’re responding with practical measures to help make public spaces safer for everyone,” Ms Price said.
“Expanding the City of Greater Geraldton’s CCTV network will give police and emergency services better tools to prevent and respond to crime. It’s about real action to support law enforcement and to give locals greater peace of mind.”
Shadow Minister for Home Affairs and Cyber Security, Senator James Paterson said under a Dutton Liberal Government, the Geraldton and Mullewa communities will be stronger, more secure, and better supported to tackle crime.
“Getting Australia back on track means keeping Australia safe – safe for families, safe for businesses, and safe for communities,” Senator Paterson said.
"Projects delivered under the Safer Communities Fund will help protect local communities by ensuring they have appropriate security infrastructure in place such as CCTV cameras, alarm systems and security lighting."
This commitment is part of the Liberals’ plan to strengthen our local communities and get our country back on track.
