On indulgence, Madam Deputy Speaker, on behalf of the government I wish Misha Schubert and her family all the best. I have known Misha Schubert for much longer than the Leader of the Opposition but I am sure that Ms Schubert does not wish me to divulge the circumstances of our first meeting—I will just leave that hanging!

Ms Schubert will no doubt continue to have a successful career in journalism. She brings to her profession a diligence and professionalism that is clearly respected across the House. I will also say that as a human being she deals with members in a way which is polite, which is frank, which is determined and which brings, I believe, a great deal of respect to her very noble profession—the noble profession of journalism.
