Before we begin today, can I wish the Leader of the Opposition a happy birthday. I'm sure he'll return it in kind, generous remarks as question time goes on. I don't think so!

An honourable member interjecting

My present's coming? I suspect yours is too! I inform the House that the Minister for Population, Cities and Urban Infrastructure will be absent from question time today for personal reasons. The Deputy Prime Minister will answer questions on his behalf. The Minister for Home Affairs will answer questions of behalf of the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs. I thank the opposition for those arrangements.
