Members will be aware—certainly, on our side, through the member for Macquarie—that the Parliamentary Friends of Orchestral Music made sure that yesterday there were moments in this building that were calm. If you walked through the corridors just outside, the Sydney Symphony Orchestra was doing pop-up performances throughout the building. The doors were all shut to make sure that the calm didn't make its way in here! I wanted to thank you as Speaker for facilitating that for all members and people around the building. I also ask: is it possible for that to happen more often? I think it's probably good for the place.
