Before giving the call to the member for Leichhardt, I inform the House that we have present in the gallery this afternoon the President of the Senate of Chile, His Excellency Mr Jovino Novoa, accompanied by His Excellency the Ambassador of the Republic of Chile. On behalf of the House, I extend to them a very warm welcome.

Honourable Members:

Hear, hear!

I also indicate to our Chilean amigos that they are the first occupants of our new gallery, which means that members can actually see our distinguished visitors.
