Mr Speaker, I am delighted to be able to join with the previous speakers in congratulating you on your elevation. I have no doubt that you will bring dignity and goodwill to the very important office that you have been elected to today. I would also like to thank the member for Mackellar for her long service to this parliament in the role of Speaker and as a minister, shadow minister and a fierce representative of the people of Mackellar.

I think I was, at the end, the only person still barracking for the member for Maranoa. It was a one-person team, but we are very pleased to know that he will still continue his wonderful work as Deputy Speaker. Thank you very much for your service to date and in the future as well.
