I inform the Senate that I have received a letter from Senator Lundy—which people would not be surprised about after her speech last night—resigning her place as a senator for the Australian Capital Territory. Pursuant to section 44 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, I have notified the ACT Chief Minister of the vacancy in the representation of that territory caused by the resignation. I table the letter and a copy of my letter to the ACT Chief Minister.
