It is my great privilege and pleasure to welcome the Speaker of the New Zealand Parliament, Rt Hon Trevor Mallard, who is accompanied by Ms Judith Collins, Ms Barbara Kuriger, Dr. Duncan Webb, Ms Helen White, all members of the New Zealand Parliament, and Ms Carmen Maran, Clerk of the House. They are here as guests of the convener of the New Zealand Friendship Group, our good friend and colleague, Senator Barry Ward, and they are very welcome.

I am also informed by our colleague, Senator Horkan, that H.E. Brad Burgess from the New Zealand embassy is also in attendance and is accompanying this very distinguished delegation. He is also very welcome.
