Anthony CARBINES (Ivanhoe – Minister for Police, Minister for Crime Prevention, Minister for Racing) (09:50): Yesterday the Minister for Veterans attended the opening of the V Centre, a one-stop hub with wraparound services and support for veterans facing homelessness. Vasey RSL Care has a long history in Ivanhoe, and they provide vital care, accommodation and support for the veteran community. With the Simpson army barracks and the Heidelberg Repatriation Hospital located in the Ivanhoe electorate, our community has a strong representation of serving ADF members, veterans and their families, and we thank them all for their service.
