Before members exit, I want to draw to the attention of the House an incident that occurred during a division yesterday. I believe it's in the best interests of the House if I give the honourable member for Kennedy an opportunity to address this issue.

I must apologise to the House for my actions yesterday in attempting to enter the chamber after the order that the doors be locked. I also apologise to the security attendant who was closing the doors. I acknowledge he was doing his job as directed by the Speaker. Thank you for the permission to make that statement, Mr Speaker.
