On 18 Oct 2023, David Ettershank, Member for Western Metropolitan Melbourne, gave his members statement on the safety of Medicinal Cannabis compared to Opioids, despite some media reports.
A Member’s Statement is a short statement on any topic of interest or concern.
It’s a Member’s oppourtunity to talk about pretty much anything.
For example:
– an event of note
– giving recognition to an outstanding individual or organisation
– bringing something to the attention of the house
