Before seeking leave I would like to acknowledge the contribution of Senator Kroger in the previous condolences on the death of George Hannon, former senator. It is so much better when somebody in the chamber actually has personal knowledge of the people we are talking about in condolences. I know that sometimes Senator Minchin and I find it hard to speak on condolences when we have not actually met the person so I thank Senator Kroger for her contribution.
