International Women’s Day

Melissa HORNE (Williamstown – Minister for Casino, Gaming and Liquor Regulation, Minister for Local Government, Minister for Ports and Freight, Minister for Roads and Road Safety) (09:53): Last month I put out the call in the Williamstown electorate for people to nominate a woman to be recognised at my International Women’s Day celebration, which took place last Friday. My office was flooded with nominations, so much so that the venue had to be changed to accommodate. Not only did the morning celebrate and recognise the incredible work of these women in my electorate it also fostered new connections and strengthened the community. I would like to congratulate all the women nominated, and I look forward to next year’s event as well.
