MEDIA STATEMENT FROM KEITH PITT MP:
I have today advised the Deputy Prime Minister and Prime Minister of my decision to resign from the ministry. It has been a great privilege to serve the Australian people, particularly in a role which delivers much needed infrastructure to the regions.
However, I will always put the national interest and the interests of my constituents above my own. I will always put reducing power prices, before Paris.
I provide my genuine thanks to the leadership for the opportunities I have been provided. I look forward to contesting the next election and Scott Morrison and his new executive has my full support. A Bill Shorten Labor government will only result in higher taxes, higher power prices and less money in peopleâs pockets.
