on indulgence—Just briefly on behalf of the government we associate ourselves with the fine words of the member for Wannon. Ewen Jones was someone who was known to those of us who served with him as someone of good spirit, someone absolutely dedicated to his electorate and someone who was a good bloke and was good fun to be around. He's someone who had a great deal of friends across this parliament, and on behalf of the government and the Australian Labor Party I express my condolences to his family and friends and to his political party.
