Ms GAMBARO (9:48 AM) —I rise today to acknowledge some of the fine work by organisations in the Redcliffe Peninsula. I would like to start by congratulating Robert Moncur from the Woody Point Neighbourhood Watch for winning not only the regional but also the Queensland award for his work with Neighbourhood Watch. It is a very fine organisation and one which is run very expertly. It does terrific work in the community and for the Woody Point residents. Congratulations to Robert.

I want to praise the Redcliffe SES, who have also had a winning time. They took third place at the state rescue competition when they came head to head with seven other SES teams in a two-day competition. The Redcliffe team had six members, and they were engaged in things like first-aid, rescue, navigation, and land search and rescue. They were put into mock emergency situations, and they were able to draw on their expertise and their experience. I want to congratulate the SES for their wonderful work and for the great work they do in our city. I also want to congratulate manager Mick Ryan, Loretta Bruhn, Robert Majewski, Scott Hamilton, Sandy Avery and Gary McGinn. Well done to those people.

Another club that always shows great community support in the Redcliffe area is the Redcliffe Leagues Club. They came to the forefront again in donating a much needed trailer to the Redcliffe and District Cardiac Rehab Support Group. Des Webb just recently handed over the trailer to the support group. I want to congratulate the Redcliffe Leagues Club for the work they do. The cardiac group works with very few resources. They are senior citizens of the community who have had major heart episodes. They meet every week for a three-kilometre walk along the foreshore at Redcliffe. They are very supportive of the community and visit shopping centres and community groups, so that trailer will be a fantastic and welcome addition. It will make it easier for the group to carry equipment. It is an important addition for their educational supplies and also for their testing kits. Congratulations to them.

On a final note, I want to also congratulate the Redcliffe Peninsula jet skiers for having an open day on 6 October. Jet skis are a menace if not used properly. With the participation of the Queensland Water Police and the Jetboat Sports Association, the open day focused on safety and speed requirements so that jet skiers can live in harmony with the bay-side community residents. The open day was well attended, and I want to congratulate them for a marvellous day.
