Curtin Surveys and Submissions

Surveys:

Please tell Kate what you think by completing the following short surveys:

  • Cost of Living survey:
    Constituents constantly raise cost of living concerns with me, and a number of factors are making it tough at the moment. Please take my cost of living survey to help me inform my policy discussions.

  • Current Issues survey :
    Please complete this short survey about a range of current issues, such as HECS debt, energy solutions, banning lies in political ads and more.

Recent Curtin Community Submissions:

  • Online Safety Submission
    Social media and its impact on mental health and child safety is an issue raised with me by young people in Curtin, as well as their parents and grandparents.  Our recent Curtin Online Safety Survey reflected these concerns, with 574 Curtin constituents responding to inform our Curtin Community Submission to the Government’s review of the Online Safety Act 2021.

    The National Transport and Infrastructure Net Zero Consultation Roadmap aims to set out the pathway for decarbonising the entire transport sector.
