Can I join the Deputy Prime Minister in welcoming Defence Secretary Shapps and High Commissioner Smith. It's great to have you here today. I associate this side of the House with the Deputy Prime Minister's comments. On the UK-Australia relationship we are of one mind, so we welcome this status of forces agreement and also deepening our country ties, specifically through AUKUS. So I look forward to hearing more of your planned meetings. We will be there all the way with you.
