New home for Bass MLA

BASS MLA Brian Paynter officially opened his new Wonthaggi office on Wednesday morning.
The big move from the original office in McBride Avenue occurred on Monday, December 14 and a breakfast was held on Wednesday morning to mark the occasion.

Mr Paynter’s new office is located at 9 McBride Avenue – across the road from the old one.

Though spacious workspaces and meeting rooms will come as a huge benefit for Mr Paynter’s staff, he is also thrilled to have appropriate wheelchair access that will allow all people to pop in for a chat.

Everyone is more than welcome to stop in during office hours on weekdays.

“The move has been fantastic. Physically it has a better layout and has better access, but it means so much more than that. For me, it’s a fresh start,” Mr Paynter said.

The new signage can be seen from the iconic location in the main street and everyone who has come in for a quick look has loved the new building.

Breakfast was provided by Wonthaggi Rotary and members of the Wonthaggi Business Association were among the crowd, as Mr Paynter drew the winners of the loyalty program raffle on the day.

A gold coin donation was asked of those who enjoyed the breakfast, with funds going towards White Ribbon Australia.

“We need to work to stop violence against women in our community and send the message there is no place for that sort of behaviour where we live,” Mr Paynter said.
