The Hon. AILEEN MacDONALD (10:04): I move:

(1)That this House recognises the Tweed Coast Youth Service.

(2)That this House notes that:

(a)the Tweed Coast Youth Service is a community‑based and volunteer‑led youth service which was founded in 2012;

(b)since its inception the service has expanded to provide wellbeing programs, mental health support and outreach programs for the local youth; and

(c)over the years, the service has received funding and support from various sources, including local and State governments, community organisations and private donors.

(3)That this House acknowledges that the Tweed Coast Youth Service has become a vital resource for young people in the community and provides a range of services.

(4)That this House commends the Tweed Coast Youth Service, which has now become a leading youth service provider in the northern New South Wales region, led by a board that works tirelessly to support the needs of young people in the community.

(5)That this House further acknowledges that without funding the service would not be able to provide necessary services in the region.

(6)That this House recognises that the Tweed Coast Youth Service is looking to secure grants and funding to support the delivery of programs and activities and to secure a permanent venue for the delivery of these programs and activities.

Motion agreed to.
