Welcome to my Website
I am proud to have been Ilam's MP since 1996. Ilam is a great electorate and still an enjoyable place to live with excellent education and community facilities.
As a city we face challenges but we are working hard on a local and national level to make good progress.
For the Government the next three years will be about rebuilding and strengthening the country and we are in a good position to do that compared with a lot of other economies. Rebuilding Christchurch is a top priority for this Government. We are totally committed to the reconstruction of Canterbury and we are determined to see that momentum is maintained.
My Ministerial responsibilities and role as Leader of the House means I do have to spend a lot of time in Wellington. However, if you have any concerns or issues that you think I should know about then please do not hesitate to get in touch with my office. My electorate staff are always available to help.

The Government has launched a website to provide New Zealanders with information about the Government’s mixed ownership programme.
www.governmentshareoffers.govt.nz,
This website gives New Zealanders factual information about the proposal to sell up to 49 per cent of four State Owned Enterprises - Mighty River Power, Genesis Energy, Meridian, Solid Energy, and a further stake in Air New Zealand.
Kendal School Bike Track
On Saturday March 31st Gerry, as local MP, and Champion mountain bike racer Anton Cooper officially opened the Kendal School Cycle Track. The day was sunny and warm and many local people turned up with bikes to celebrate the opening and take part in the festivities. The track is a mountain bike style track, designed by the same engineer who designed the extension at McLeans Island. It is about 600 metres long and has various "challenges" built around it for children to try out. It is aimed at 4 - 9 year olds to help them build up bike handling skills in preparation for learning to ride safely on the road.
It is a community facility so after school hours everyone is welcome to come and ride it.
