NSW Justices Association

15 November 2018

Mr MATT KEAN (Hornsby—Minister for Innovation and Better Regulation) (17:07): I pay tribute to the NSW Justices Association Hornsby branch, which provides support and assistance for justices of the peace [JPs] in our local area. It has recently celebrated its tenth birthday and as a patron I am proud to be part of that amazing organisation. It started with just 20 members and has now grown to more than 120. The Hornsby branch members first started their community JP desk at Cherrybrook shops in 2008. Ten years later, it is still held every Saturday. They also provide services at Carlingford Court. In 2017 Hornsby members completed approximately 6,000 documents. This year to date they have completed approximately 4,600. Hornsby members provide JP services at many local libraries and the Supreme Court. The branch continues to meet on the second Monday of each month at Magpies Waitara. I thank President John Tibbitts along with the executive committee members Brian Heasman, Ruth Churchill, Brian Carney, Jann O'Connor, Gavin Moehead and Pat McDonald. I thank them for the outstanding service that they and all JPs provide. I wish them a happy tenth anniversary.
