by leave—Professor Sean Turnell, Dr Ha Vu, we also welcome you back to Australia safe and sound. We thank you for the way in which you have always conducted yourselves, each of you, particularly noting that your engagement in Myanmar was one to help uplift others, to deliver for others and that the price you paid was an immense one. I too associate the opposition with the remarks of Senator Wong in thanking all of those who worked so hard to secure your release and we know that you will continue to work hard wherever you can for the people of Myanmar.
