Kings Birthday Honours - Annette Ruhotas

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I would like to congratulate Oatley resident, Annette Ruhotas, who was recently made a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for significant service to her community. Annette has contributed to so many organisations over the years, including the Australian Red Cross, Lifeblood, both Playgroup Australia and Playgroup NSW and on several health regulation and advisory roles in numerous medical organisations. Whilst there are many volunteers in the St George area, Annette has truly gone above and beyond in her service to our community. The Member of the Order of Australia is a prestigious award and I am incredibly pleased that she is now receiving the recognition that she deserves. Annette is truly a community leader and an inspiration to those around her. She is proof if the change you can make through hard work and dedication and I would like to congratulate her on all she has achieved. I look forward to seeing everything Annette accomplishes over the next few years. She is very deserving of this honour.
