Flag at Half-Mast: The Honourable Barry Thomas Pullen

On 16 July the Australian Flag at Fed Square will be flown at half-mast to commemorate The Honourable Barry Thomas Pullen.

Barry was a true servant to the people of Victoria, spending 20 years in the public sector before being elected to our state’s Parliament in 1982.

He was determined to achieve a fairer and kinder Victoria – a cause he never wavered from during his time as Minister for Housing and Construction, Education and the Environment.

After retiring from Parliament in 1999, Barry’s commitment to being a voice for the voiceless continued.

He was a profound leader and mentor for many, but above all else, he was a loving friend, husband, father, and grandfather.
