I've just got a little bit of work to do, Members, before we leave. Before I call the Leader of the House and the Prime Minister and do the Leader of the Opposition—for all of us to do the end-of-year comments—I just want to inform the House that present in the press gallery today is Steve Quick, who's retiring after almost four decades in the federal press gallery, remarkably working for the same company, Channel 7, for his entire career. Steve began his career as a camo in 1988 at Old Parliament House, working his way up to eventually run the Channel 7 bureau at Parliament House alongside his colleague Mark Riley. I understand that Steve is highly respected by his colleagues in the press gallery, and will be greatly missed. On behalf of the House and all members, I thank Steve for his service and wish him all the best for his retirement.
