Do you know someone who deserves recognition for their contribution to the community?
Member for Burnett Stephen Bennett is encouraging nominations of worthy locals for recognition in the Order of Australia.
Mr Bennett said the Order of Australia recognised outstanding members of the community who have made significant contributions to benefit their communities and the country.
“We have so many dedicated, caring people in this community who deserve to be recognised for the selfless work they do,” Mr Bennett said.
“It’s important that we recognise those deserving people for their achievements, service and contribution to our society.
“It would be great to see more people from our region and across the state receive that recognition at a national level .”
Mr Bennett said any individual, organisation or professional body can nominate someone, and nominations can be submitted to the Australian Honours and Awards Secretariat at Government Housing online at www.gg.gov.au/austrailan-honours-and-awards/nomination-forms.
