Announcing the awards, Adelaide Archbishop Patrick O’Regan said the Order of St Gregory the Great was one of the highest awards for lay people, bestowed on Catholic men and women deemed to have made a significant contribution to the Catholic Church. A lawyer before entering State Parliament, Mr Crafter served as the Member for Norwood for 14 years, seven as Education Minister. Since becoming involved with the Young Christian Workers movement as a young man, he has continued his active involvement in the local parish and the Adelaide Archdiocese, including chair of the Clergy Care Council, chair of the Diocesan Finance Council and as a member of the Order of Malta. At a national level, Mr Crafter served as chair of the National Catholic Education Commission for seven years during a period of complex political engagement with the Federal Government which led to long-term funding benefits for Catholic schools across Australia. He was a director of the Little Company of Mary, which runs Calvary Health Care across Australia, for nine years, and has been heavily involved in fundraising for the Mary Potter Hospice in Adelaide. In 2015 Mr Crafter was appointed by the Bishops Conference to the Truth, Justice and Healing Council which was established by the Australian bishops to liaise with the Royal Commission into Institutional Child Sexual Abuse.

    Maltese Newsletter 105 December 2015 Muscat calls for legally-binding climate change deal at UN summit Prime Minister urges world leaders to 'send a signal of challenges and opportunities of moving towards a climate-friendly future' Tim Diacono www.maltatoday.com.mt/news/ Prime Minister of Malta Joseph Muscat addresses the COP21 summit in Paris Prime Minister Joseph Muscat has urged world leaders to adopt a legally-binding agreement to tackle climate change. Addressing the UN climate change summit in Paris, Muscat cited a joint statement signed during last week’s CHOGM in which the 53 Commonwealth nations agreed to back a legally-binding global climate deal in the form of a protocol. “We hope that such an outcome, according equal importance to mitigation and adaptation, will mobilise all parties in its implementation and put the global community on track towards low-emission and climate-resilient societies and economies,” Muscat said. In the joint statement signed in Malta, the Commonwealth nations also reaffirmed their pledge to mobilise $100 billion per year by 2020 to help developing countries adapt and mitigate to climate change effects. Speaking in his role as the Commonwealth chair-in-office, the Maltese Prime Minister urged “practical and swift action” by governments and all other private and public stakeholders to help out climate vulnerable states and communities. “In this spirit, we have launched the Commonwealth Climate Finance Access Hub, the Commonwealth Green Finance Facility initiative, and the pioneering global Commonwealth Youth Climate Change Network,” he recounted. "Although one of us had reservations on some elements, this remains, I believe, a statement that is worthy of the Commonwealth, a supportive message to all our fellow members of the climate change community and in particular to France." “Our aim here is not just to reach agreement on what governments undertake to do in the years and decades ahead,” Muscat said.
