Local government elections

Joe McCRACKEN (Western Victoria) (10:15): Lastly, I would like to acknowledge some local government councillors that were elected over the last period of time. Samantha McIntosh won Central ward in Ballarat – a three-time mayor, she is an amazing advocate for the community; Cr Ben Taylor for Buninyong ward; Ted Lapkin for Brown Hill ward; Ben Green for Central Goldfields shire, who is an amazing man; and Paul Tatchell, who topped the board in Moorabool Shire Council. Congratulations to all councillors.
