It is with deep regret that I inform the Senate of the death, on 28 November 2024, of the Hon. Thomas Eyre Forrest Hughes AO, KC, a former minister and member of the House of Representatives for the divisions of Parkes and Berowra, New South Wales, from 1963 to 1972. Before I call the Leader of the Government in the Senate, I draw to the attention of honourable senators the presence with us today of former prime minister the Hon. Malcolm Turnbull AC, Ms Lucy Hughes Turnbull AO, Ms Christine Hughes and Mr Tom Hughes. I also welcome family in the President's gallery today. On behalf of all senators, I pass on our condolences.
