Mr Acting Deputy President, I am seeking leave to go back to government documents on the basis that those that were not dealt with today disappear from the Notice Paper. I just want to reserve two documents.

Do you just want to continue your remarks?

Yes. I am not going to speak on them.

Leave granted.

Having done that, and there being over 200 documents, I cannot put my finger on the numbers that I want, but I will give them to the Clerk later. I seek leave to continue my remarks in relation to a report from the department of transport and regional services on CASA, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority; that is one. The second one was the report from the Australian Research Council; again, I cannot put my finger on the number but I will give it to the Clerk.

The Clerk has informed me that they are happy and we will do it on that basis. Everybody is calm in the chamber. Are you seeking leave?

I seek leave to continue my remarks on both.

Leave granted.
