News 
Dear Members,
Please be aware that the Government has exploited Dr Rachel Carling-Jenkins illness and hospitalisation, and has used its numbers to move its Fire Services Reform Legislation to a vote. The Upper House (Legislative Council) is debating the bill, and has been forced to sit all night overnight, and is extending into good Friday. They have not been allowed to adjourn and are continuing to debate.
This is the first time in Victoria's history that the Legislative Council has been forced to sit on Good Friday, and all motions to adjourn debate to allow MP's to observe the religious holiday have been defeated.

We wish all members undertaking today's Good Friday Appeal on behalf of the Children's Hospital a successful day.
