I move:

That leave of absence for the remainder of the current period of sittings be given to Mr Neumann.

I spoke with the member for Blair yesterday. On behalf of all members, we wish him, as he deals with the illness of his beloved wife, Carolyn, all the very best for this period. I have said to him that this is his correct priority. He's continuing to serve his electorate, but it's important that he not travel at this time, and I'm sure that will be respected.

Question agreed to.
