Member for Davidson, Jonathan O'Dea has hoisted a new State flag over the Lindfield building housing his Electorate and Campaign Offices.

The event coincided with a visit by a Shadow Ministers bus, which is touring the state in the lead up to Saturday's State election.         

At the raising of the flag, Mr O'Dea said, "The old flag is like NSW Labor - tired and worn out and needs to be replaced.

"The new flag is symbolic of a fresh new start this Saturday under a NSW Liberal & Nationals Government," he said.  

During the Shadow Minister's tour, Mr O'Dea highlighted a number of key local issues which will need to be addressed under a NSW Liberal & Nationals Government:

·       Overdevelopment

·       Traffic Congestion

·       Public Transport

·       Health Services / Proposed New Hospital

The Shadow Ministers' bus included:

·        Shadow Health Minister, Jillian Skinner (Member for North Shore)

·        Shadow Minister for Citizenship, Volunteering and the Arts, Anthony Roberts (Member for Lane Cove)

·        Shadow Attorney General and Shadow Minister for Justice, Greg Smith (Member for Epping)

·        Shadow Special Minister of State and Shadow Minister for Inter-Governmental Relations, Chris Hartcher (Member for Terrigal)
