Thank you, Clerk. Senators, I am seeking your support today to be the President of the Senate, and if you bestow that honour on me, I will certainly carry out the role of President in an impartial way. I have had a long apprenticeship as deputy, so I know most of you, and I look forward to getting to know the new senators. I look forward to you putting your trust and support in me.
