Tim McCurdy is Victorian Opposition spokesperson on Water and Consumer Affairs

Mr McCurdy said he was pleased to be returning to the shadow cabinet and was eager to ensure that the Andrews Government was held to account.

“Victoria needs a strong Opposition that will scrutinise the Government and hold them to account for the spin and spend coming from this premier,” Mr McCurdy said.

“Country Victorians voted loud and clear that they wanted the Coalition to represent their needs, and ensure they get a fair share from Spring St.”

However, despite his new position, Mr McCurdy was keen to reassure residents of the Ovens Valley that he would still be available to them.

“I can assure Ovens Valley residents that I am still their local voice,” he said.

“If you have any issues or concerns, I will still be happy to meet with you, or give you a call to discuss them.”
