A week in is a good time for an update - I’m now a radio producer for @abccanberra. Dms open for fun, community stories #Canberra

Part two of this story is incoming - where are those low-hanging zoning fruits which would make infill easier in the burbs? Hint: RZ1s in the Inner South and North feature heavily. #ACTPol #housing

Is increasing land supply the key to alleviating the Territory's housing affordability crisis? It may not be as simple as you think https://t.co/tZk9Rtzhba https://t.co/yozxzYTHvt

It's been a marathon of a day, but the #ACT has just passed "nation-leading" #drugdecrim laws for small amounts of substances like ice, heroin and cocaine. Once in effect (next year), no criminal sentence if caught, just a $100 fine or a diversion program. #ACTPol @The_RiotACT

Major #drugdecrim laws are set to pass the @ACT_Assembly today. To get them through, the gov has suspended standing orders which has SERIOUSLY angered the Libs. They say no one told them this "shabby" process was coming. The final debate on the laws is going to be long. #ACTPol

Health Minister @RachelSS_MLA says a permanent gynaecological oncology treatment centre will be set up in Canberra. It follows lobbying from specialists who had previously been concerned the service would shut down after a doctor retired. #ACTHealth #ACTPol @The_RiotACT

The ACT’s CHO is holding a formal stand-up to discuss the COVID-19 situation locally. Overarching message seems to be nothing is changing, no restrictions are coming in but people are asked to prepare themselves for a challenging period ahead #ACTPol @The_RiotACT https://t.co/qKNfBMhaBl

RT @teacherdude: Apparently, you can now do a Masters in Mansplaining. https://t.co/4SGUmJGTMl

Today, ACT Health is reporting six deaths but five of these were historical - all of these occurred at the same residential aged care facility. @RachelSS_MLA says it’s too early to say if that’s a concern. Late reporting has been attributed to a ‘human error’ #ACTPol

No masks in Canberra Airport terminal from midnight on Friday - follows AHPPC advice to this tune yesterday. Masks are still required on the plane. @CanberraAirport has also withdrawn its legal challenge to the #ACTGovernment on the matter. #ACTPol #COVID19

#BREAKING As expected, a #noconfidence motion in Minister @ChrisSteelMLA did not pass the @ACT_Assembly. Full story via @The_RiotACT #ACTPol

And now, it appears that promised legal action has been launched by lawyers acting on behalf of the @CanberraAirport. Will be interesting to see how this goes and if it sets the stage for similar matters to be raised in the future. #ACTPol #COVID19

Region Canberra @RegionCanberra

#CanberraAirport will launch legal action as early as today against the ACT Government's #maskmandate in the airport terminal https://t.co/FgX76BgwFO https://t.co/9V6adsahxk

Well, well - @ElizabethLeeMLA will now be told to delete her Tweet about being booted by the Speaker when she returns to the #ACTAssembly later this morning ... ... and so the drama continues on day two! #ACTPol @The_RiotACT https://t.co/JMFqBe5zpm

RT @Paul_Karp: Stuart Robert: "I'm not interested in responding to an ACT Senator." That would be Katy Gallagher, the minister for finance.
