Thank you, Mr Acting Deputy President Murray. You would have noted that after the consideration of the last bill I departed not knowing that the Civil Aviation Legislation Amendment (Mutual Recognition with New Zealand) Bill 2005 [2006] was to come on next, because it is not even on the red today. I arrived back at my office to find that we are now to deal with a piece of legislation that the government had not thought a priority when the red was constructed this morning.
