 Kim WELLS (Rowville) (16:57): I am so proud of all the local communities in the electorate, and that is why it is so disappointing that the Knox council is pushing to scrap our Australia Day Knox community awards. Not only do these awards give the community a chance to recognise local heroes, but they also give clubs and societies a chance to recognise their own members, whose dedication and commitment often go unrecognised. I would like to urge residents in my electorate to take a stand against Knox council and sign my petition to save our Australia Day Knox community awards.
