Mr O'DOWD (Flynn—Deputy Nationals Whip) (13:59): On Friday 2 October I attended the 1770 Cultural Connections Immersion Festival, held over two days—a history of the traditional owners of the region. It was a two-day event. I attended only on Friday. I'm sad I couldn't get there on the other day. It was a great event. I would like to congratulate Kerry Blackman and his team for an excellent event. I'm hoping they can have the event again in the near future. The SPEAKER: In accordance with standing order 43, the time for members' statements has concluded.
