Just in case you did not know, Mr Deputy Speaker, it is June, which means that SIDS and Kids volunteers and supporters will be out selling red nose products right across the country. As the patron of SIDS and Kids NT I am delighted that there are so many volunteers offering to help us with this year's red nose campaign. I am advised that the Northern Territory Fire and Rescue trucks now have red noses on them. It is fantastic to see that they are out supporting our red nose campaign.

It is not just red noses that we have for sale during our red nose campaign. We have soft toys, pens, pins—such as the one I am wearing—magnets and even portable speakers. Throughout June in my electorate red nose stalls can be found in the Darwin Mall, the Mitchell Centre and the Nightcliff, Casuarina, Karama, Hibiscus, Oasis and Palmerston shopping centres.

I encourage everyone to drop by a stall and say a 'g'day the red nose way' by buying a red nose product or two. I will be manning a number of red nose stalls over the coming weeks and encourage people to visit me, particularly this weekend. I will be at Casuarina shopping centre on Saturday and Palmerston shopping centre on Sunday. I would really appreciate it if people would come past and show their support for this worthwhile cause that is very dear to my heart.
