The PRESIDENT ( 11:21): Thank you very much, Senators, for the honour and privilege bestowed on me here today. I will do my utmost to be a fair and consultative President. I want to acknowledge the outgoing President, Senator Slade Brockman, and thank him for being collegiate and for including me in lots of his duties. I wish him well and I look forward to working in a similar manner with the deputy. Thank you, Senator Cox, for participation in the ballot today. It is always good to see democratic processes in place, and I thank all senators for that honour today of electing me as the President.
