I inform the House that we have with us a delegation from the Italian parliament, led by secretary of state Mr Steffan de Mistura. He has with him a very large delegation of businessmen from Italy, and I am led to believe by the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport that several women might be happy to meet them because they might be able to provide us with some rather nice regalia—and we do all like our Italian fashion. We do welcome you here today and hope you enjoy your time in the parliament.

We also acknowledge Graham Edwards, the former member for Cowan, who is also with us today. We welcome him to the chamber.

Honourable members: Hear, hear!
