We all welcome Eddie and his parents to the House today. We are pleased that he is here. Eddie will understand that everything we do here in this parliament is designed to ensure that Australia becomes an even better place for him to grow up in and realise his dreams. In this respect, everything we do is about him and his generation.

I am very disappointed that the Deputy Leader of the Opposition would use Eddie—take advantage of Eddie's presence here. I am very disappointed, because what she has said is that people who do not know Eddie are not entitled to express a view on the Marriage Act. That is what she is saying.
