I thank all the staff here: Hansard, Mr Crump and his team, the catering people and everyone who makes it possible. In particular, I would like to thank my ministerial staff, all of whom have worked extremely hard, parliamentary counsel, and can I say a special thank you to Libby Eates, who has done an extraordinary job in managing all the bills this year. Libby, I apologise: we did not get as much through as you wanted, but we will try harder again next year. I also put on record that Will Evans, my Chief of Staff, is moving on. It is a terrific loss to us that he is moving on, but I would like to put on the record my sincere thanks for his tremendous work and assistance.

Thank you to all of those people and I wish everyone a very happy and prosperous festive season. Motion carried. At 01:42 the house adjourned until Thursday 21 December 2017 at 10:30.
