What’s it like to be working in the hallowed halls of Parliament House in Canberra? Catherine King has represented the Ballarat electorate federally since 2001, and since then she’s learnt how to deal with the ever increasing influence of online technology in the way she communicates. As Shadow Minister for Health, Ms King examines the health issues affecting Ballarat and how to tackle the obesity crisis so prevalent in the city. She discusses some of the challenges for regional communities, particularly for Ballarat which has been transitioning from a traditional manufacturing town. Ms King also explains how her family has kept her grounded from the constant public and media spotlight.More informationCatherine King MPhttp://www.catherineking.com.au
