Just like our firefighters, the PAW Patrol pups are on fire with their quick thinking and problem-solving skills. It's great to join forces with the PAWsome pups and Minister for our annual Open Day. You’re never too young to learn about fire safety.

This is one of my favourite photos of today - Ron Hoenig of Jewish faith and Tina Ayad of Islamic faith, both sworn in at the same time on their respective holy scriptures. Our multicultual and multi faith society is something to treasure. #nswpol

Meet Ron - captain of the Kunghur station (Northern Rivers) for past 37 years. It’s the spirit and dedication of volunteers like Ron, who make an enormous difference to our communities. Thank you to everyone who gives their time for the benefit of others.

The stabbing of a Service NSW worker today in Sydney is horrifying. The thoughts of our government and our state are with this worker and their family at what is no doubt a very difficult time. To all the staff at Service NSW and those first responders on the scene - thank you.

Very sad news, and from NSW, we send our deepest condolences to her family and the firefighting family everywhere. We often take for granted, the risks firefighters take on a daily basis in order to keep us safe. Rest in peace.

Lovely to share a bbq with many volunteers who helped on my election campaign. No MP gets to where they are without the help of people who give up their valuable time - I am blessed with a passionate group of supporters who did just that.

For something different, Steve Pearce and I decided to have our briefing in Greenacre. Really keen to work on getting more people involved in surf rescue and improving people’s skills and capabilities around water. Thanks to all volunteers regularly patrolling waterways.

Thanks to Anthony from Bondi for the masterclass on using the ServiceNSW app most effectively. One of the team’s priorities is constant improvement and making this great app even more accessible and easy to use.

Thank you for your service, Greenacre resident Len, a WWII Halifax Bomber pilot. Turned 100 last week and says his 50 push ups a day help keep him fit. Appreciated his wisdom and sage advice on life at today’s Anzac commemoration #LestWeForget

In visiting headquarters, I wanted to make sure I thanked the service team that keeps all the vehicles on the road. It’s a big ecosystem underpinned with one principle in mind “Prepared For Anything”. Thank you to all members of The Service; every role is crucial.

Grateful to the local volunteers who stayed all night to assist the large crowds at Lakemba Mosque. Always grateful for their help but first time I could thank them as the Minister for Emergency Services. #LaylatulQadr

We just wrapped up our first full cabinet meeting. Over the next four years, every meeting we'll be tackling different issues facing our state. But one thing will remain the same - we'll always be fighting for a better future for everyone in NSW. No matter who you voted for.

A holy time for people of faith. Easter, Passover and Ramadan. Today, I joined my Christian friends at St. Charbels in Punchbowl for Good Friday service. Whichever way you commemorate this time, may the blessings of the season fall upon you and your loved ones.

Great first day as Minister; one highlight was meeting the wonderful team in Haymarket and thanking them for the work they do. Shared wonderful conversations about the instilled passion to deliver the best possible service to people of NSW.

Thank you - I hope this serves to show all those who have thought “I can’t” to say “I can”. I hope it encourages people to appreciate that everything is possible in this great state of ours and the limits placed on achievement are ones you place on yourself.

Anyone who's met @jihaddibmp knows that he's an incredible person - he also just made history. Becoming the first Minister in NSW to be sworn in on the Qur'an. Jihad, has always been a trailblazer. As a teacher and principal he changed lives in his community.

Local community groups make a big difference…Sydney Community Connect putting together hundreds of food hampers for people doing it tough. Today’s drive was to help families for Ramadan.

Firefighters are overstretched and working extra shifts to cover staff shortages. have committed to an additional 600 officers. Only Mr. Kean could find a way to run a scare campaign on that! Sorry but I’ll back our Emergency Services over him every day of the week.

More Minns-Mookhey budget mayhem: Labor’s announced it will cut take-home pay for firefighters to hire more staff. This will strip up to $54 million from pay packets a year. The Liberal & Nationals Govt will continue to deliver sustainable pay increases. Details of Labor's cuts…

Dominic Perrottet said he wouldn't sell off our roads, then he did - Sydney Water is next. Selling off control off control of one of our most critical assets to fund his $50b black hole. We cannot allow this to go ahead and under Labor it won't.
