Source: Statement of Registrable Interests - this contains interests declared as at 21/05/22 and alterations since then.
This statement contains interests declared as at the date of their election to parliament 21/05/22 and any alterations since then, including new interests and amendments and deletions to existing interests.

Problems: The Sydney Morning Herald's CBD column revealed on 4/4/24 that Scamps had failed to declare her shareholding and directorship of Cherry St Investments Pty Ltd, putting her at risk of being found in serious contempt of the House of Representatives. She declared her directorship, but not shareholding, the next day.
