Memorial park at Noakes Place, Charnwood

By Ms Tucker , from 534 residents:

To the Speaker and members of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory

This petition of certain residents of the Australian Capital Territory draws to the attention of the Assembly that a memorial park is now, after more than seven years, being erected on the site of the house fire in Noakes Place Charnwood where 3 children tragically lost their lives. Despite considerable discussion with the relevant authorities, approval has not yet been given for the erection of a small amount of play equipment as requested by the family of the deceased children. The family's request is that an active and 'happy place', that includes a swing or a slide, be created in memory of these children.

Your petitioners therefore request that the Assembly, as an urgent priority, approve the inclusion of a swing or slide in the memorial park that is being erected in Noakes Place, Charnwood.

The Deputy Clerk having announced that the terms of the petitions would be recorded in Hansard and a copy referred to the appropriate minister, the petitions were received.
