I know there are many other members who want to say something today, but they'll have that opportunity throughout the sittings next year. I personally just want to say I agree with all of the words in the speeches. I won't repeat them. We've known each other a long time too, and I knew throughout this week, as we were speaking, it was a big decision and it was a difficult speech in many ways. I did make a note before question time not to throw you out today. I thought that was quite important.
