On indulgence, I would like to place on the parliamentary record the parliamentary Labor Party’s appreciation for the longstanding service of Mr Kim Beazley, the member for Brand, and for the enormous contribution he has made to the party, the country and this parliament. I think all members are aware of the personal tragedy which the member for Brand has suffered today. On behalf of the parliamentary party, and on behalf of all members of the parliament, we extend to the member for Brand and to his family our deepest condolences at this difficult time.
