Dr Duncan McFetridge MP

I was proud and honoured to be elected as the Member for Morphett in March 2002 and re-elected in March 2006. The people of Morphett are extremely important to me, so don't be afraid to get in touch, no matter how trivial you think your problem may be. If it's important to you then it's important to me.

I currently hold the portfolios of Shadow Minister for Public Transport; Industrial Relations; Science & Information Economy; and Aboriginal Affairs & Reconciliation. I am also a member of the Aboriginal Lands Parliamentary Standing Committee.

Transport Minister Pat Conlon was embarrassed in Parliament today after his “comprehensive plan for public transport” was revealed as little more than a one-page map.

King Street / Kibby Bridge
Tuesday, 16 June 2009 05:03

Residents would be well aware that I have been lobbying both the State and Federal Governments for funding to replace the King Street Bridge at Glenelg North which has a limited life expectancy due to concrete cancer.  To date the State Government has refused to contribute funding to replace the bridge.  I am very hopeful that the City of Holdfast Bay's submission to Infrastructure Australia for Federal Government funding will be successful.  In this event, local residents have approached me seeking to have the new bridge named after World War II Victoria Cross hero, Sergeant William (Bill) Kibby who was a Glenelg resident and one of only two South Australians to be honoured with the coveted Victoria Cross for valour.

I would be interested to hear your views on this suggestion.  Please feel free to also vote on my current website survey.
