Mr ALISTER HENSKENS (Ku-ring-gai—Minister for Families, Communities and Disability Services)—I would like to acknowledge the passing of Cec Morgan, Killara resident and the former president of the 416 Group. Much like the 416 logo, the Powerful Owl, Cec watched over his community and was keen to ensure that the lovely bushland setting, on the edge of the Lane Cove National Park, where he had chosen to raise his family, would be preserved for future generations. Cec was involved in the West Lindfield / West Killara Progress Association and in 2001 he helped form the 416 Group in response to concerns about the environmental impacts of projects around the Lane Cove National Park. Cec was also involved in Neighbourhood Watch, the local bushfire unit, advocated for road safety improvements on Lady Game Drive and for improved commuter parking in Lindfield. There is no doubt about Cec' invaluable contribution to our community and I pass my condolences on to his wife Jenny, daughters Catherine and Michelle and his five grandchildren. Vale Cec Morgan.
