Points of Order — Audrey Young—30 Years with New Zealand Herald
Time unknown
I raise a point of order, Mr Speaker. I apologise, but I hope the House will indulge me. I’d hoped to do this yesterday, but I wonder if, on behalf of the House, I can congratulate Audrey Young on her 30 years with the New Zealand Herald, which was marked yesterday. She started on 8/8/88. I can remember that day well from sixth form. I know that she has been here in the precinct for 24 of those 30 years. And I’d like to say, on behalf of all members of the House, that we’ve always appreciated, Audrey, your focus on getting to the heart and the truth of the matter, and being a true representative of the fourth estate. So thank you for what you’ve done.
[Applause]
Time unknown
And, for once, I’ll say, “No comment.”
