Victorian MPs pay tribute to Labor’s Jane Garrett as Tim Smith reveals he discovered her cancer recurrence on day of crash
into a Hawthorn home last October while driving at more than twice the legal blood-alcohol limit.
“I’m not trying to, in any way, take away from my own responsibilities, my own behaviour, but that’s the fact,” he said. Smith served as the mayor for Stonnington – in Melbourne’s inner south-east – at the same time Garrett was the mayor of neighbouring council, Yarra. The premier, Daniel Andrews, told Garrett’s children that their mother had made a “big and important” contribution to the state.
