Disability Workers Week
Iwan WALTERS (Greenvale) (10:14): Coming up next month is Disability Workers Week, and I want to take this opportunity to thank all of the incredible disability workers across Victoria, who work tirelessly in a caring profession, often not very well paid, to look after and support some of the most vulnerable members of our community. They do this day in, day out, quite literally, and the work they do has such an important impact on communities across our state. Can I take this opportunity as the Parliamentary Secretary for Disability and as the member for Greenvale, where many disability workers live and work, to thank you for everything you do, for the impact you have in the lives of Victorians with a disability and for your genuine care and service.
