Before I call the member for Batman, I wish to inform the House that we have present in the gallery this afternoon the Hon. David Tollner MLA, the Northern Territory Treasurer and former member for Solomon and member of the class of 2001. We also have present the Hon. Judi Moylan, the former member for Pearce. On behalf of the House, I would like to extend a very warm welcome to them both.

Honourable members: Hear, hear!

I call the member for Batman.

Mr Nikolic interjecting—

The member for Bass will not interject.
