Turning to another matter, along with around 3,000 Canberrans, a few months back I participated in the DonateLife walk as part of a TAMS team. There were 25 TAMS walkers, including family members and a couple of four-legged walkers, who got up early to join the walk. I would like to thank Kim Smith for organising the team.

I think it is timely for us to congratulate DonateLife on the wonderful work they do in our community and to note that in other parts of the world there are some extremely disturbing practices going on in relation to organ transplants. As global citizens, we have a responsibility to be aware of these things. I would like to congratulate my New South Wales colleagues on putting this issue on the agenda in their jurisdiction.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

The Assembly adjourned at 6.54 pm.
