Before I call the member for Bradfield, I have a number of guests I would like to welcome to the House of Representatives today. Firstly, I'd like to welcome Her Worship Ms Vraie Cally Balthazaa, the Mayor of Colombo.

I'm also pleased to inform the House that we have a delegation of young music leaders who are here taking part in a launch hosted by The Push of the National Plan for Young Australians in Music—the realisation of a 10-year vision shaped by extensive consultation with young people—as guests of the Minister for the Arts.

We also have a group of young Greek Australian leaders from across the country who are here in Canberra as part of the Greek Australian Society's inaugural young leaders. On behalf of the House, welcome to question time, as today is also Greek Independence Day—chronia polla!

I'm pleased to inform in the House today we have a delegation from the Sydney Swans, including coaches, management and current players Braeden Campbell and Chloe Molloy, in a sea of red in the gallery. Welcome to question time.

Honourable members: Hear hear!
