DISTINGUISHED VISITORS

Mr TEHAN (Wannon—Manager of Opposition Business) (14:08): on indulgence—Speaker, I join the Prime Minister in saying thank you for what you've done to make sure that democracy is spread right throughout Australia, especially with young people, because it is facing challenges. It is facing headwinds, and your initiative is fantastic. It was wonderful to join with you this morning.

We went up to the roof of parliament and we had the great honour and privilege, with all these young people, of unfurling the Australian flag and then winding it back up, and that flag is going to be sent around the nation. The whole way this has been done has been quite extraordinary. I will finish on this note.

I say to you all: be very, very ready because, if someone gets booted out today, then you might have to come down and substitute in their spot! So be on your toes, because this is a new initiative we're going to bring. Well done, Speaker.

The SPEAKER: I'm happy to oblige. We shall move to questions without notice.
