Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (10:00):

Scouts Victoria recently completed their innovative Street2Bay project, a project that sought to combat microplastic pollution and protect our beaches.

Congratulations to project leader Tracey Steeves, who was honoured with an award by Rod Byrnes, Chief Commissioner of Scouts Victoria.

Over 500 scouts and leaders spent 3300 volunteer hours in litter audits, collecting and categorising 54 000 items of litter.
