House debates Condolences

I would like to associate myself with the tributes that have been paid to this great Australian by honourable members, including the member for Hotham, the member for Wentworth and, particularly, the member for Kingsford Smith, who talked about visiting Margaret Olley's home and referred to Edmund Capon's comments on her passing. If memory does not fail me, he described her home as an 'archaeological tip' with many treasures still to be unearthed, as those responsible for her estate will doubtless reveal in the coming weeks and months. Vale Margaret Olley. May she rest in peace.
