Members statements- Reclink Sunbury

Mr  J. BULL (Sunbury) — Once again the Sunbury and surrounding communities have shown great spirit by rallying behind Reclink. Many have chipped in to support this organisation after it was robbed two weeks ago. The support has been outstanding. The theft of sporting equipment was very disappointing, but the response from the community in coming together and helping out really shows the huge amount of goodwill that is out there. Most importantly, this helps Reclink do the important work that it does each and every day.

I raised the issue of the theft with the Minister for Sport, and I am thrilled that the Andrews government is able to assist with a grant for new sporting equipment. Reclink can now continue to do what it does best. I want to thank and commend the minister for his support and his continued passion for keeping local communities fit and healthy.
