Politician

You don't know how long you have in public life... I want to make the best of it while I've got the role.

We value integrity of information, we value processes, cyber- security. These are things important to the government.

If we could have a really good debate with the states and the federal government on tax reform I'd be up for that.

It took me a while to learn how to spell my own name.

Whether it is a hard or soft Brexit, there are opportunities here for us to be had.

People can expect that from me as premier: If there's something to be done, something to be fixed, it'll happen.

I want the people of Wagga to know that my government will work hard across NSW, but especially in that region, to win back the trust that we have clearly lost.

For me, when you're standing in Parramatta you'll be looking to the west for the best jobs, not necessarily the east.

I strongly believe supply is the best way to address housing affordability.

All of us from time to time look back and think we could've handled things differently or better.

Look at me - I'm the daughter of migrants and I certainly felt on the ground very early on in my premiership that people did warm to me.

Having a police presence on public transport is vital to ensuring customers are safe.

I've never made a conscious decision to choose work over other considerations.

I am a strong believer in small government that doesn't interfere in people's lives.

I accept you need the right balance, people do need to know their privacy is protected, but when it's essential information which will be dealt with by security agencies... I do feel the public interest overrides that.

I'm a fan of making sure our community grows and that we are always compassionate and remember our place in the world.

I'm really proud of a lot of the achievements we've made as a government but obviously I'll be putting my mark on the premiership and doing things that I think are important in terms of my own personal priority.

When I come to Manly I just remember my childhood.

I will say this: in a state of emergency operations decisions are taken by the commissioner. It's not for politicians to interfere.

I want to pay tribute to the teachers who, during my life at school in the public education system, saw something in me and encouraged it.
