Hunter Valley bus crash


Hunter Valley bus crash

Will FOWLES (Ringwood) (10:22): The Warrandyte Cricket Club is dealing with a thoroughly devastating series of events as a result of the Hunter Valley bus crash that occurred late on Sunday 11 June. As I am sure members know, 40 people were returning from a wedding. Twenty-four of those 40 on board were part of the Warrandyte Cricket Club community. One of them has died, three of them have life-altering injuries and most of them are still in New South Wales dealing with the consequences of that tragic event. I want to extend my gratitude to the Premier and the government for their support of the Warrandyte Cricket Club, just a few minutes outside of my electorate. That support has been absolutely critical for them, and I want to particularly congratulate Dave Molyneux and his committee for the unbelievable work they are doing in the most trying of circumstances.
