 Jess WILSON (Kew) (09:46): On the weekend I was on the tools for Boroondara Neighbourhood Watch as part of their Bunnings barbecue. A big shout-out to David and Lisa, who head up Boroondara Neighbourhood Watch and do an outstanding job. At a time when we are seeing our community under immense pressure when it comes to rising crime rates, David and Lisa are out almost every single night talking to local residents – residents who are concerned and fearful in their own homes – and talking to them about how they can keep themselves safe and their families safe. Congratulations on a terrific Bunnings barbecue. I got very good at saying, ‘One with onion and one without,’ over the course of my time on the tools, and I very much look forward to working with you in the weeks ahead.
