Mr Speaker, on indulgence, for the information of the House I present a revised list of the shadow ministry:

The document read as follows—

Each box represents a portfolio except for (1) which is in the Education portfolio, (2) which is in Treasury portfolio and (3) which is in the Health portfolio. Shadow Cabinet Ministers are shown in bold type .

The Deputy Leader of the Opposition will add training to her responsibilities. Senator Cameron will work closely with her, adding TAFE to his current responsibilities. The member for Kingston will join the shadow cabinet as shadow minister for early childhood education development, in addition to her current responsibilities. And the member for Kingsford Smith will become the shadow assistant minister for an Australian head of state, in addition to his existing responsibilities.

And on behalf of the entire Labor movement, I thank the member for Adelaide, Kate Ellis, for her outstanding work as a member of the Labor front bench.

Honourable Members:

Members on both sides! The Minister for the Environment and Energy! The Leader of the House! Members on both sides will cease interjecting or we'll have a 94(a) before we even get to question time.
