I inform the House we have present in the gallery this afternoon Mr Tim Weeks, who's been mentioned by both the Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister. As you all know, Tim has recently returned to Australia after being held captive in Afghanistan for over three years. Tim, the whole country is glad you are home, and we're glad you're here with us today.

Honourable members: Hear, hear!
