Thanks to Duncan's Plumbing in Page ACT

Small businesses are the backbone of our local economy, with nearly two-thirds of Canberra’s workers employed in the private sector. In many cases, small businesses are also important parts of our communities and neighbourhoods, bringing people together and supporting worthwhile endeavours.

Three weeks ago, I attended the Page Shopping Centre Barbecue, sponsored by Duncan’s Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning. Duncan’s is a well-regarded landlord for many other shopkeepers in Page and supports the Belconnen Community Men’s Shed, community events, and number of sporting teams across the region. In the Assembly today, I rose to thank Jason Duncan and all his employees for making so many valuable contributions to our community.
