Andrew McLachlan Deputy-President

I just have a brief personal reflection. I grew up on a family farm in Pemberton. I admit that my dad was a political tragic, but the influence of Peter Nixon is demonstrated right across Australia in that I well remember the name Peter Nixon and his role as minister both for transport and primary industries in discussions with my father across the kitchen table. If you have a look at the distance between Gippsland and Pemberton, it does show you the breadth of influence that Peter Nixon had.
Question agreed to, honourable senators joining in a moment of silence.
