Four stalwarts of the Braddon electorate have been recognised in the 2020 Queen's Birthday honours for their dedicated service. Hugh Hiscutt from Howth has been awarded the Order of Australia. Veteran Rod Bramich has been awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia. Mr Ian Paton Sr has been posthumously awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for his service to the Wynyard community. Inspector Glen Ball, who has been serving the Tasmanian community as a police officer for over 40 years, has been awarded the Australian Police Medal. I thank each and every one of them for their selfless dedication and their service to the region. I conclude today with a quote from Mr Hiscutt: 'There is no better place in the world to live than the north-west coast of Tasmania, a community big enough to prosper yet small enough to care.'
