For the future.

STATEMENT FROM PREMIER Peter Malinauskas: After two decades of service to South Australia, our Parliament and his local community, Leon Bignell MP has announced he will not be recontesting the next State Election. Leon has been a tireless advocate for his constituents and our entire state. From strengthening regional communities to championing tourism, major events and primary industries, he has consistently brought passion and an unwavering commitment to delivering lasting outcomes for South Australia. His service to the Labor Party has been just as remarkable. Against every prediction, Leon held Mawson for Labor at the "unwinnable" 2014 election. In 2018, he again defied expectations after a significant redistribution turned Mawson into a notional Liberal seat, yet he retained it once more. And at the last election, he didn't just hold Mawson, he strengthened Labor's position with a significantly increased margin. It is an extraordinary record of electoral resilience and deep community support. I want to sincerely thank Leon for his remarkable service, his dedication, and his many contributions to public life. I wish him every success in the next chapter ahead.

When it mattered most, Premier Peter Malinauskas stepped up and delivered for one of South Australia's most iconic and important organisations, Bedford Industries. For decades, Bedford has empowered thousands of South Australians living with a disability, providing purpose, dignity, skills, community and real jobs. They are part of the fabric of our State, and walking away was never an option.
