In acknowledging the incredible role of Her Majesty and her service, I also want to acknowledge the parents of the roughly 568 Australians who were born today who cannot hope to be Australia's head of state under our current arrangements and our current laws.

I also want to make a note: there are a lot of other Australians whose birthdays fall today, including my four-year-old daughter, Hannah, who today turns five, whose birthday I cannot be at. I do want to note that there have been some who have referred to this Senate ungraciously at times as the ‘bar scene from Star Wars.’ I note that my daughter's birthday does fall on what is known as Star Wars Day.

Question agreed to.
