 Melissa HORNE (Williamstown – Minister for Ports and Freight, Minister for Roads and Road Safety, Minister for Health Infrastructure) (09:58): Last week we celebrated some magnificent Australians in the Australia Day honours, and two people in the Williamstown electorate got their share of recognition. Congratulations to Kane Treloar, a long-time member of the Williamstown Swimming and Life Saving Club, who received the Emergency Services Medal for his service on the Westpac life saver helicopter. Also, Lorraine Woodman, an Altona resident, received an Order of Australia for volunteering at local cricket clubs around Williamstown for over 32 years. Lorraine is dedicated to helping the profoundly disabled participate in sport. Congratulations to both Lorraine and Kane, two real local legends.
