GreenInc

The Hon. D.R. CREGAN (Kavel) (15:29): It is a pleasure in this place to rise and reflect on the opening and establishment of GreenInc, a social enterprise run by Bedford in Totness in my community. GreenInc is embracing a new perspective in terms of disability employment. Rather than offering supported disability employment, GreenInc's objective is to ensure that open employment can be offered to as many in my community as are able to contribute to GreenInc's program and for GreenInc to continue to win contracts to deliver horticultural and green waste services, in addition to the creation and maintenance of open and green spaces, work which they have been performing to date.

It was a true honour to meet with staff and also with executives of GreenInc and Bedford. I received a close briefing of the scope of works that is likely to be performed and I also really appreciated the heart and purpose of the organisation. It was clear to me that GreenInc had reflected carefully on the service offering that it was able to provide in my community. There have been a number of companies, including Lanser, Peet and of course also the Mount Barker District Council, that have to date embraced GreenInc and welcomed their services, but I expect there will be a number of other organisations that will make contact with GreenInc and embrace their services in months and years to come.

As I said, it was an absolute pleasure to meet with staff and also with GreenInc's executives and to hear directly from Bedford about its work to establish GreenInc and to ensure that it can continue to thrive in my community. I look forward to a close association with GreenInc and its employees and I look forward to its continuing contribution to my community in years to come.
