Today at Spring Street, Russell Northe has paid tribute to many local legends and leaders in his Parliamentary contributions.

"One of the best parts of my job is being able to formally congratulate the stars of our community, and it was my utmost pleasure to put on record my support for the winners of the annual Gippstar awards, in their terrific achievements in sport", Mr. Northe said.

"Today, I have also paid my respects to upstanding members of our community who have sadly been lost to us", Mr Northe continued. "These individuals all made significant contributions to the fabric of our towns and they leave a rich and important legacy. They also leave behind many loved ones whom I extend my deepest sympathy and support to".
