Mr Deputy Speaker, I just want to make a clarification. I think the clerk read out that this was a motion by the member for Lyons. Is it actually a motion by Mr Lyons, the member for Bass?

I think this was a typographical error. Mr Lyons, of course, was a former Prime Minister of this place and someone that should be admired. I know the Leader of the House would admire him. He was someone that left the Labor Party to pursue fiscal responsibility!

Come on now, the member for Casey! We have got a clarification. It is the motion of Mr Lyons, the member for Bass, not the member for Lyons. I thank the member for Barker for drawing that to the attention of the House.
Question agreed to.
