On indulgence, I would like to take a moment to update the House on recent bushfires in Queensland. On behalf of all Australians our thoughts are with the people of Queensland who are dealing with yet another bushfire. I am advised that family homes have been lost—though only two—amongst other personal and commercial property losses. In addition, hundreds of homes have already been threatened by flames within metres of their fence lines.
