Mr ALBANESE (Grayndler—Prime Minister) (08:10): I move: That leave of absence be given to the following Members from the determination of this sitting for parental leave purposes: Ms Payne until Monday, 23 March 2026; Mr Burns until Tuesday, 12 May 2026; and Dr Reid until Monday, 2 March 2026. This motion grants leave of absence to the following members: the member for Canberra until Monday 23 March 2026; the member for Macnamara until Tuesday 12 May 2026; and the member for Robertson until my birthday, Monday 2 March 2026—just to give people a reminder.

It's not a big one! In speaking to that, I congratulate Alicia, who is up the back there, and partner, Ben, on the arrival of baby Joseph, who participated in his first caucus meeting the other day and was very joyful. Congratulations to Josh Burns and his partner, Georgie.

Baby Lilah participated in the parliament on Monday. Gordon Reid and his partner, Shaylee, are expecting their first bub very soon. Where's Gordie?

There he is! His seat's got much safer, so he's moved down there; that's what happens when you get 60 per cent, mate! To you and Shaylee, a new coastie—congratulations as well.

We look forward to welcoming your first bub very soon. Question agreed to. House adjourned at 08:12
