 Joe McCRACKEN (Western Victoria) (09:52): I rise to pay tribute to and recognise the Ballarat Foundation, who do enormous work in Ballarat to support the community. I recently attended the Ballarat Foundation AGM, and I wish to congratulate Wayne Weaire the board chair, the rest of the board and also Andrew Eales, who is the CEO. This week is National Volunteer Week, and the Ballarat Foundation are running a morning tea for donors, supporters and volunteers in the Ballarat area because they support the great place that Ballarat is to work, live and stay connected.
