It is really good to see everyone's smiling faces, and I hope people had the opportunity to take a little bit of a break during the recess. I know plenty of people worked all the way through, but it is important that everyone, wherever they work, gets a little bit of a break—you come back with fresh ideas.</text>
        <text id="20240827abad76bbebca43beb0000221">During the break, we had a little function to recognise some of the staff members who have served the House of Assembly so well for so many years. I would like to place on the record the thanks of everyone in the house, I am sure:</text>
        <text id="20240827abad76bbebca43beb0000222">
          <item sublevel="1" bullet="true">To David Pegram, who has notched up 25 years in the House of Assembly. I think he may have done seven years in the Legislative Council before he came here, so that is 32 years.</item>
        </text>
        <text id="20240827abad76bbebca43beb0000223">
          <item sublevel="1" bullet="true">To Shannon Riggs, who has racked up 20 years of great service: congratulations and thank you to Shannon.</item>
        </text>
        <text id="20240827abad76bbebca43beb0000224">
          <item sublevel="1" bullet="true">To Tonia Coulter, who has served the House of Assembly for 10 years.</item>
        </text>
        <text continued="true" id="20240827abad76bbebca43beb0000225">We thank everyone for their very valuable service to the House of Assembly. We appreciate all that you do.</text>
