Portfolio — 1 July 2026

Tribune’s note

Minister Anne Aly used a parliamentary statement on 30 June to catalogue a suite of infrastructure and service delivery gains in her Cowan electorate. The most significant announcement was the construction of a new train station in Ballajura, delivered in partnership with the Western Australian state government — a capital project that signals active federal-state coordination on suburban connectivity in Perth's northern corridor.

On health, Aly reported that the urgent care clinic in Nollamara has reached full operational capacity, and announced the opening of the Mirrabooka Medicare Mental Health Centre, adding a dedicated mental health access point to the electorate's primary-care footprint. Road-safety upgrades across Malaga Drive, Mirrabooka, Montrose Avenue and Hepburn Avenue were also cited as progressing.

Aly closed by naming the Greenwood Street Pantry, the Lions Club of Wanneroo and Youth Futures as community organisations contributing to the Cowan electorate [TA-260630-house-1314b1cdbe60:s096]. The statement was procedural in form but substantive in content, and the breadth of issues covered — transport, health, road safety, and community services — reflects a consistent pattern of the minister anchoring her ministerial role in direct local delivery.
