I would like to associate the opposition with the words of the minister. I know that many members of parliament went to local services around the country and reflected on the weekend on that service and sacrifice. It is very fitting that we recognise that in the House today and also recognise those families. I had the honour of listening to Keith Payne VC on Saturday night and to hear him talking not only about his contribution but his family's contribution as well. I think it's important that we remember that as well. Lest we forget.
