 Nathan LAMBERT (Preston) (16:32): I would like to congratulate everyone involved in planting nearly 2000 native plants along Darebin Creek on Sunday as part of a long-term restoration project taking place near the Plenty Road bridge. In particular I would like to recognise the Darebin Creek Management Committee, including Danny Reddan, Annette Salkeld, Peter Grenfell and Talia Sawers; the Darebin Council bush crew, including Michelle and Tim; Uncle Dave Wandin of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation; Margaret de Kam and the Friends of Darebin Creek; Nick and the 10th Ivanhoe Scout Group volunteers; the team at OzFish; and finally Microsoft and the federal Labor government for their financial support.
