One more step towards the Liardet Family and Children's Centre

The beginning of construction of the new Liardet Family and Children's Centre was marked at a formal gathering on site today. Andrea Coote MLC, Parliamentary Secretary for Family and Children's Services, along with Georgie Crozier represented the state government. John Lenders MLC represented the opposition. The commitment of local member Martin Foley to the project was acknowledged. The contribution and involvement of all three tiers of government was noted as a very positive feature of the project. The funding contributions of each are as follows: Federal $1.6m, State $1.2m [allocated by the previous state government] and Council $1.35m. All councillors were in attendance, pleased to see the project underway.
