Senator Browne referred to us as new kids on the block. I fully appreciate the increasing workload that everybody has to bear. The Senator referred to the hours he spends in the House and he did not insist that he is working flat out. I find that the days are never long enough and any spare time is spent in the office returning telephone calls. The point has been strongly made about the lack of support for Opposition front bench spokesmen. Senator Higgins has made do by himself; he is a tremendous man on his feet and he speaks very succinctly. It is difficult, but that is the way one learns. I accept, however, that a balance will have to be found.
