Congratulations to Midcoast Hearing from Taree, which was recently named champion of Health Improvement Services at the Australian Small Business Champion Awards, the most prestigious national recognition for Australian small businesses.

I'd also like to give a great shout-out to Angus Gill, a very talented young Australian country music star who's just completed his Departure and Arrival tour with his final concert in his hometown of Wauchope. Angus has won a Golden Guitar, is one of the youngest Australians to have played at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville and has collaborated with many Grammy Award winning US artists, including Steve Earle, Jim Lauderdale and Jerry Salley. I'd like to wish Angus all the best as he looks to relocate to Nashville to further his recording career.

And congratulations to Josh Thompson of Pindimar, who was recently crowned the level 9 under-15 Australian champion at the Australian Gymnastics Championships on the Gold Coast. Josh was sidelined for much of 2022 with a back injury, but he wasted no time in recapturing his form when he returned to training and winning this championship. He also funds his own travelling costs to training and competitions by recycling bottles and cans through the Return and Earn scheme. Well done, Josh, for your determination to succeed against all odds, and all the best for your future.
