BROOKE VAN VELDEN (Deputy Leader—ACT): Thank you, Mr Speaker. It is an honour to stand here as the deputy leader of the ACT Party and as a member of this 53rd Parliament. I'm humbled by the support shown to me here in the Chamber today and from those watching at home and at work. It is the first time in nearly a decade that ACT has had a deputy leader elected to Parliament, and I will do my utmost to help lead and provide guidance to the eight other new members of our team as we navigate this exciting chapter in our party's history together.
