We have the Mayor of the City of Greater Dandenong, Councillor Jim Memeti, His Excellency Mr Adrian Mara, the ambassador of the Republic of Albania and also Her Excellency Ms Jetmira Berdynaj Shala, the ambassador of the Republic of Kosovo. I'm pleased to inform the House that present up there in the gallery today are representatives from Mater Little Miracles, whose work to improve outcomes for mothers and babies in neocritical care helps give our tiniest and most vulnerable patients the best start in life. Oliver and his mum, Louise, are sitting in the gallery today. Oliver is six and was born at 25 weeks. In the special visitors gallery today are the nearest and dearest of the member for Kennedy—his family. They are here to celebrate his 50 years representing the community of Kennedy at state and federal level, including his lovely wife, Mrs Susie Katter. Welcome to you all.
