House of Assembly Fifty-Second Parliament, Second Session (52-2) 52 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Adjournment Debate Adjournment Debate Farrell, Senator D. FARRELL, SENATOR D. Ms CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Leader of the Opposition Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (17:24): I wish to bring to the house's attention—which I am sure they are already very much aware—that we, after Saturday, are likely to have a new representation in the Senate for the one half, namely six of the 12 entitled senators that we had an election for on the weekend. After the election, it seems likely that one of our longest-serving senators for South Australia, the Hon. Don Farrell, is likely not to be returning to Canberra after June 2014, of course, when his current term expires. When members give service to their state or their constituency, I think it is important that that is recognised. I have previously worked with Senator Farrell on some local projects and some matters of importance for the state, so I think it is reasonable to recognise that on this occasion and place on the record our appreciation for the work that he has done. I cannot say that his apparent involvement in the elevation of the former prime minister, Ms Gillard, or indeed our own Premier, fills me with joy but, nevertheless, that relates to his loyalty to his party and he will carry that legacy. Finally, on a happy note, I announce that just over a week ago my third granddaughter was born. So, we are doing everything we can to help populate the state from the Chapman family. Elizabeth Stella Rose came happily into the world. She joins her sister Adelaide Grace Iris and the next sister Georgina Chloe Lily, so a happy family of three girls. I think that it is incumbent upon all of us to think of good ideas to help populate the state of South Australia, and we are doing our bit.
