"...our local area has always been special to me.
It's important that I continue to work hard and represent the needs of Ryan residents, in order to ensure practical benefits are delivered for our local community.
Clearly, my job is not only to speak out in Canberra but to do what I can here at home."

Applications for the
National Youth Roundtable 2004 open
Federal Member for Ryan, Mr Michael Johnson MP, today encouraged young Ryan residents to get active and share their views and concerns by taking part in the National Youth Roundtable 2004.
"Young people know better than anyone else what it is like to grow up in Australia today and it is important that young Australians from all backgrounds to get involved and apply.

* a National Code of Good Practice for New Apprenticeships;
* the Australian Forum of Youth Organisations and the Youth.Comm email discussion group;
* the formation of the National Indigenous Youth Leadership Group;
* a youth category in the National Awards for Innovation and Recognition in Local Government;
* a register for young people wishing to take part in decision-making boards, committees and forums; and
* a booklet encouraging Indigenous young people to take up health careers, funded by the Department of Education, Science and Training.
