Schoolkids Bonus Budget Measures
Mr FLETCHER (Bradfield) (10:51): I am pleased to rise to speak on the Family Assistance and Other Legislation Amendment (Schoolkids Bonus Budget Measures) Bill 2012. Let me start by noting that the process under which the House of Representatives is being asked to consider this bill is a deeply deficient one. The first official announcement of this measure was in the Treasurer's budget speech last night. We now have a bill which was introduced this morning that was only available to members of the House to review from 9.30 this morning.

Anzac Day 2010 - Lest We Forget.
Category: Uncategorised Published Date Written by Paul Fletcher MP Hits: 705
ANZAC Day was marked in Bradfield by many solemn remembrance ceremonies.
Member for Bradfield Paul Fletcher attended the dawn service at Roseville Memorial Club, followed by services during the day at Wahroonga War Memorial, Turramurra War Memorial and Kokoda Ave Wahroonga.
Mr Fletcher said Australians have endured the trials and horror of war on several occasions during the relatively young life of our nation.
“On ANZAC day we remember the sacrifices made by so many Australians—including in too many cases the ultimate sacrifice of those who have given their lives for our country. Those sacrifices have been made to preserve a way of life and a set of values which we cherish as Australians. What we have today would not be possible without our brave ANZACs.” Mr Fletcher said.
“It is particularly pleasing to see the very strong community participation in ANZAC Day services. So many Australians are determined to show that the sacrifice of our servicemen and women is remembered, and appreciated, as strongly as ever.”
Lest We Forget.
