Business of the house

Australian Human Rights Commissioner, Lorraine Finlay

Legislative Council Chamber—Estimates hearings

Statement

The President (Hon Alanna Clohesy) (5:05 pm): Members, I have two matters before we return to orders of the day. The first is a very pleasant one in acknowledging in my gallery the Australian Human Rights Commissioner, Lorraine Finlay. You are welcome to the Parliament.

The second is a housekeeping matter. When the house rises this evening, I ask members to take a moment to clear your desks of personal and work material prior to leaving as the chamber will be used next week for the 2025–26 budget estimates. Any items remaining on your desks tonight will be cleared by staff and retained until the next sitting week.
