Alistair Urquhart

Matthew GUY (Bulleen) (16:56): The third thing, if I can, in conclusion: I want to pay tribute to a very good friend of mine, and I think of many people in this chamber from both sides, a fellow by the name of Alistair Urquhart, who was a wonderful bagpiper, a Melbourne Scot who did business on Collins Street and connected people, a decent, decent human being who was one of the quirkiest but loveliest people I have ever met. Ali was the Liberal candidate for Jagajaga in 1993 – that is where I got to know him. Nick McGowan in the other chamber and I were very passionate about supporting his campaign. Vale, Alistair Urquhart. Our love goes to Mary.
