Order! Before giving the call to the member for Franklin, I will at a very early stage use my ‘getting the House out of rhythm and together about a cause’ card by saying, in the context of plaudits to the ABC, that today in the House we have representatives from across Australia aged between 16 and 22, a part of the ABC’s Heywire initiative, a youth leadership scheme now in its 12th year, devised by the ABC specifically for youth who live in rural and regional areas of Australia. On behalf of all members, I welcome them to the House today.

Honourable Members:

Hear, hear!
