Mr Speaker, given that just last week we quite appropriately acknowledged the tragic passing of Queenslander Steve Irwin, I am wondering whether we will be doing the same for the equally tragic passing of Melbourne racing driver Peter Brock.

I thank the member for Bendigo. It is a matter for the government as to whether or not that will be acknowledged.
