Speaker’s Statement – Cathy Piccinin – Tribute on Departure


Honourable senators, I wish to take a moment to inform colleagues that one of our table officers Cathy Piccinin, Principal Clerk of Chamber Operations and Procedure, will retire from the Senate after a long and distinguished career. Cathy began working for the Senate 32 years ago, and has served as a page and in Committees, the International and Interparliamentary Affairs Directorate, Table Research, and the last two years in her current role.

I want to thank Cathy for the diligence and dedication she showed throughout her time at the Senate.

On behalf of all senators and staff, I thank you, Cathy, for your professionalism, your dedication and your many years of loyal service to the Senate.

I wish you and your husband, Morgan, all the very best as you enter this next chapter of your life.
