by leave—I move:

That the Senate records its deep regret at the dearth on 23 March 2015 of Lee Kuan Yew, GCMG, CH, former Prime Minister of the Republic of Singapore, places on record its acknowledgement of his role in the development of modern Singapore and tenders its profound sympathy to his family in their bereavement.

Question agreed to, honourable members standing in their places.
