- View Speech - Hansard - - - Excerpts

Before we begin proceedings, I would like to note that today would have been the 100th birthday of Her Majesty the late Queen Elizabeth. She was the longest serving monarch this country has known; her reign saw unprecedented social, cultural and technological change. I pay tribute to her lifelong dedication to public service across the nations, overseas territories, Crown dependencies and the Commonwealth. Her devotion to duty remains an example to us all.
