Melbourne continues to cement its position as Australia's leading build-to-rent market, with approval granted for almost 800 new rental homes across two inner-city developments. Minister for Planning Sonya Kilkenny has signed off on the projects in Melbourne, delivering a combined 797 apartments in Docklands and Fitzroy.
Main construction works have officially started on the $535 million expansion of the Monash Medical Centre in Clayton, marking a major milestone in boosting healthcare capacity for Melbourne's south east. The Allan Labor Government says the project will help bring care closer to home and improve access to essential hospital services for growing communities.
A State Funeral for The Hon. Robert Ian Knowles AO will be held in Ballarat next week, recognising his decades of service to Victoria through parliament, health reform and community leadership. The service will take place at 10.30am on Friday 15 May at the Cathedral Church of Christ the King on Lydiard Street South and will be open to the public.

A federal appeals court has upheld a ruling that halted President Donald Trump’s executive order to create a federal list of eligible voters and limit delivery of mail ballots only to people on that list. The ruling over the weekend rejected the Trump administration’s effort to move forward with the mail-in voting restrictions in 23 U.S. states that sued ahead of November’s midterm elections.
