Today is the 21st anniversary of the first election of seven members to this place. They are the members for Hotham, Werriwa, Banks, Maranoa, Fairfax and Wide Bay and the great political comeback merchant, the member for McMillan. I believe to have seven members that have gone the distance of 21 years out of the 150 is something of great credit to each of them. I hope that in some way each member will have something in their heart that would say, ‘Congratulations, well done and thank you.’
