  • Hon Natalie Ward
    The Hon. NATALIE WARD (18:08): It is an honour to be in this place and a privilege to speak for the first time. I am humbled to have the opportunity to serve as a member of the Legislative Council. I will serve with humility and courage. I cannot claim to arrive here from a disadvantaged background. I was blessed with a loving, stable, happy family home. My parents worked hard to provide me with an excellent education. It was strong family values and love that allowed me to develop my faith, my work ethic, and a strong desire to serve. I would like to thank my parents, Dianne and David Ward, for igniting my passion to serve. My work as a lawyer and political adviser later exposed me to the reality of the hardships faced by people from many different cultural and social backgrounds. That experience has only further ignited my desire to change things for the better. Many an inaugural speech has contained a moving quote by a revered member of this planet, and I am not going to disrupt the status quo—well, not tonight. It was Martin Luther King who said: Life's most persistent question is, "What are you doing for others?" More exciting than that statement was the resulting holiday in honour of King—a day of service where everyone stops to do something for someone else. King was right when he acknowledged that service makes the world a better place. I acknowledge the volunteers in this State. I acknowledge those in the Rural Fire Service [RFS] and Rotary clubs, on Parents and Citizens boards, lifesavers on patrol, and volunteers at local Shute Shield Rugby clubs—those who passionately commit themselves to their communities.

Yasmin Catley MP; The Rt Hon the Lord Mayor of Sydney, Councillor Clover Moore Dear Premier Re: Reopening support for night time industries We write in furtherance of our letters dated 12 and 23 July 2021, with thanks for the support provided to the highly-impacted industries that the Night Time Industries Association (“NTIA”) represents - being hospitality, events and performance, arts, culture, retail and their supply chains. With public funds starting to find their way into private business bank accounts and the reintroduction of mandated rent relief for eligible commercial tenants - for which we thank you - we now turn our attention to the reopening of these industries as safely, efficiently and quickly as possible. In this, we are seeking more clarity on what the roadmap to recovery looks like, as well as reopening principles and support specifically targeted at these highly-impacted industries, which have experienced extreme adverse economic and personal impacts due to the lockdown. It is our understanding that confidence is at an all-time low since the onset of COVID-19.
