On behalf of the Australian Greens, I congratulate you on your election to the role of Speaker. I know, from my experience of having worked with you on the selection committee, as well as having seen you in the parliament, that you take very seriously the at times competing obligations this unique parliament imposes on the Speaker. I have absolutely no doubt that, in the coming months, you will continue to exercise that very high standard of integrity. Once again, and on behalf of other members on the crossbenches, I congratulate you on your election.
