April 10, 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n

The South Burnett’s new LNP Branch has been busy lately … hot on the heels of last week’s visit by Lawrence Springborg, it today hosted a visit and dinner for two Federal pollies.<\/p>\n

Member for Maranoa Bruce Scott and Member for Mackellar Bronwyn Bishop were joined by more than 80 people at a fund-raising dinner held at Accents Restaurant in Kingaroy.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the day, the pair dropped into the Kingaroy RSL Club to discuss Anzac Day celebrations with the local sub-branch and launch a new Anzac Day information pack.<\/p>\n

Veterans’ issues are close to the hearts of both MPs.<\/p>\n

Ms Bishop served for many years as Shadow Minister for Veterans\u2019 Affairs while Mr Scott was Veterans’ Affairs Minister from 1996-2001. He also held the portfolio of Minister Assisting the Minister for Defence from 1998-2001.<\/p>\n

Since the 2001 election, he has chaired the Defence Sub-Committee.<\/p>\n

Mr Scott said Anzac Day packs would soon be arriving in letterboxes throughout the electorate ahead of the April 25 commemorations.<\/p>\n

“This is another way of connecting Anzac Day with the community and is part of a build up to the centenary which will be held in 2015,” he said.<\/p>\n

The packs feature the story of Anzac plus the order of service and traditional hymns.<\/p>\n

“It reinforces the great work our RSL does in the community including going into schools to talk about Anzac Day,” Mr Scott said.<\/p>\n

“It reinforces the importance of Anzac Day and that people of our generation have received a great legacy, the gift of freedom, from previous generations.<\/p>\n

“Every day I think about the responsibility we have to ensure the knowledge and legacy of the Anzacs continues and strengthens across the nation.”<\/p>\n
