I move:

That Dr Stone be elected Second Deputy Speaker of this House.

The member for Murray is well known to the parliament, having been elected in 1996. The member for Murray served as a minister and a parliamentary secretary in the Howard government. The member for Murray is a longstanding member of the parliament, has served as a chair and a deputy chair of committees and is well aware of the standing orders of the House and what is required of a Second Deputy Speaker of the parliament. It is with great enthusiasm and honour that I nominate my friend and colleague the member for Murray as Second Deputy Speaker.
