I want to give a shout-out to Jett Jarvis, who's 12 years old from Dalveen in Queensland in the electorate of Maranoa. He's a student at SCOTS college there at Warwick, and he came in today because he's the Squiz Kids 'PM For A Day' competition winner. There he is! He had his big hat on in my office, Mr Speaker, but it's gone. He's a delightful young man here with the Squiz Kids organisation that really promote ideas and promote education and do podcasts for young Australians. His idea for the day was that people should buy fruit in supermarkets even if it doesn't look perfect, because that way we not only help the farmers but help each other and avoid waste as well. I know bananas that aren't bent the right way sometimes are rejected. They end up at Foodbank, and they still get used. But he's a bright young boy, and I wish him all the very best.
