We are celebrating Canberra Day today. It is the 100th anniversary of our nation's capital. On behalf of the House, I would like to welcome to the chamber today Lord Richard Denman and Lady Jane Denman, who have made an extraordinary journey to be with us to witness the unveiling again of the laying of Canberra's foundation stone. Lord Denman is descended from Lord Denman, Australia's Governor-General. We welcome them to question time today.

Honourable members: Hear, hear!
