I too wish to associate myself with the contributions made by other honourable members. Sir Zelman Cowen was not only a distinguished Australian; he was a great Australian. I take this opportunity to extend my deepest sympathy to Lady Cowen and her family. May he rest in peace.

I understand it is the wish of honourable members to signify at this stage their respect and sympathy by standing in their places.

Honourable members having stood in their places

I thank the Committee.
