I move:

That further statements by indulgence in relation to the Paris terrorist attacks be permitted in the Federation Chamber.

In so doing, I acknowledge the presence of his Excellency Christophe Lecourtier and associate myself with the remarks of both the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition.

Question agreed to.

Mr Ambassador, as you have just witnessed, the thoughts of members of this House are with you and the people of France at this time. As an indication of support for the remarks of the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition, and as a remark of respect to those who lost their lives, I ask all present to rise in their places.

Honourable members having stood in their places—

I thank the House.
