On indulgence I would like to join with the minister to congratulate those who have made the team for Toronto. I met many of them a couple of weeks ago at Admiralty House, and they are a real inspiration to so many. Prince Harry spoke about the ferocious competition, but he also talked about the comradeship the team has together and the role that sport plays in the healing process. I certainly wish our team proud and I also wish those putting together the games in Sydney all the best. Both the team and the organisers have the support of this House, this parliament. We wish them all the best.
