Before I call the member for North Sydney, I have a number of acknowledgements I'd like to make to welcome guests to parliament. I'm pleased to inform the House that present is a delegation from Tuvalu, led by the Hon. Paulson Panapa, Tuvalu Minister of Foreign Affairs, Labour and Trade. We're also joined by the Hon. Jon Huntsman Jr, former US ambassador to Russia, China and Singapore and the 16th Governor of Utah. I'm pleased to inform the House that we also have the Hon. Lisa Neville, former member for Bellarine and minister in the Victorian parliament; Councillor Madeline Bishop from Lake Macquarie City Council; representatives of Beef Australia, including the chairman, Bryce Camm; and students from Merimbula Public School in the mighty electorate of Eden-Monaro. Welcome to you all.

Honourable members: Hear, hear!
