		Hamer is a fellow who I think has got a more tolerant outlook.
		SIR RUPERT HAMER: I will not be seeking a further 3-year term as a candidate for the Liberal Party in Kew at the next State election and I wish to give my successor ample scope to establish the identity and the capacity of the new government before the State election next year.
		SIR RUPERT HAMER: It is of course a tremendous honour to be invited by the premier to open this splendid concert hall.

	Rupert Hamer was a great Premier and committed to the public good - On Line Opinion - 2/4/2004
		When democracy was being invented in practical form, in the Australia colonies, and later, with the foundation of the commonwealth, at federation, it was understood that civics, an education in the value and practices of citizenship in everyday life, was vital for maintaining a vibrant polity.
		Hamer was exposed to a pedagogy that developed aesthetic appreciation as a means of awakening the moral sensibility that lies at the heart of good citizenship.
		The hallmarks of Hamer’s years in power were initiatives, complementing the federal efforts of the Whitlam-Fraser era, that enhanced "quality of life": strengthening environmental protection, heritage and conservation and cultivating the arts.

	Fifty-Plus News - Over 50s comment
		I want to add a few words to the many that have been written recently to mark the passing of Sir Rupert Hamer – a compassionate leader, thinker, businessman and man of action, man of ideas and man of his word.
		He was an example for all of us of just how rich the years of the ‘third age’; can be when the mind and heart are open, when the health is good and the passion to contribute is strong.
		While he was blessed with a supportive family, good health and a well-established public and media profile, his retirement from politics in 1981 freed him to take public stands on a wide variety of matters.
