Sarah is committed to upholding individual freedoms, and keeping government transparent and accountable to taxpayers – through a variety of legislative and public awareness measures.
Sarah managed to get her “Public Sector (Ministerial Travel Reports) Amendment Bill 2023” through parliament, mandating that all SA ministers to report, itemise, and justify their travel expenses within 45 days of their trips.
Sarah also introduced the “Public Finance and Audit (Cash Payments) Amendment Bill 2024” to forbid public authorities from refusing cash payments, and guarantee people are allowed to pay up to $10,000 in cash for services.
In addition, Sarah will shortly introduce her Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC Recommendations) Amendment Bill 2024, which would restore the reputation of ICAC – and that of South Australia as a state that takes the integrity of its public service seriously.

With her commitment to advancing targeted solutions for men’s health and raising awareness of men’s issues, Sarah is Australia’s unofficial “Minister for Men” – railing against a culture that actively discourages masculinity.
In fact, she’s calling on the SA Government to establish a portfolio exclusively focused on men and men’s issues, including mental health.
Through her dogged advocacy, Sarah secured significant funding from the SA Labor Government to support men’s health initiatives. She also hosted an International Men’s Day Dinner each year since 2023.

Recognising their contribution and sacrifice for their country, Sarah is a fierce advocate for veterans’ issues, particularly mental health services, housing, community connections, and financial security.
Sarah secured significant funding for Port Lincoln RSL’s Garden of Remembrance – the resting place of over 500 veterans – to keep this significant cemetery maintained, showing our gratitude to those who have contributed so much to our way of life.

In addition, she has advocated for the Federal Government to continue funding the life-saving DAVLS (Defence and Veterans Legal Service) scheme beyond its scheduled September 2024 cessation.

Already put to parliament, Sarah’s motion to urgently review the Patient Assistance Travel Scheme (PATS) – to aid those living in SA’s often-ignored rural and regional areas – is among her policies aimed at easing the cost-of-living pressures on everyday South Australians.
It’s among the many reasons why she’ll maintain her routine of regularly visiting the state’s regional and rural areas, and talking to locals.
Sarah also advocates various measures to help reduce the skyrocketing costs associated with energy and property ownership.
She endorses the use of nuclear power, currently pushed aside in favour of unrealistic net-zero solutions, including here in SA. Sarah has called for the immediate abolition of land tax in South Australia.
She believes removing this unnecessary tax burden will increase rental availability and affordability for SA’s most vulnerable, help keep many struggling small businesses afloat, and also drive investment in our state.
Sarah also supports a review of residential stamp duty, calling for exemptions for first-time home buyers of ALL houses (not just new builds), plus concessions for those downsizing.
