I move:

That leave of absence until 29 March 2022 be given to the Honourable Member for Hindmarsh for parental leave purposes.

If I may briefly speak to my motion, could I congratulate Mark and Daniela on the birth of Charlie Dominic Butler, who was born yesterday morning—a little brother for Ellie and Isaac. Both Daniela and Charlie are doing well, and I'm sure I speak on behalf of the entire chamber in wishing them all the best. We look forward to meeting young Charlie down the track and to Mark being able to return.

May I offer congratulations to my counterpart and his wife, Daniela, on the birth of little Charlie.

Question agreed to.
