In the minute that is left to us in the adjournment debate I put on the record, as I am sure many in this House would, congratulations to many of our colleagues and people in our local communities participating in the CEO Sleepout tonight in support of raising funds for homelessness. I think it is an issue that has had a great deal of attention in the past depending on particular politicians attending it. It has been watched with great interest.

But, more importantly, while we all have in our local electorates and our communities people who will be participating, sleeping rough tonight, we support them recognising that they get to go to a warm home at the end of the night as so many in this country do not. I think we all extend our very best wishes to them, and all strength to their fundraising efforts this evening. Thank you.
