I declare open this public hearing of the joint standing committee on electoral matters for the inquiry into the twenty twenty five election.  In accordance with the committee's resolution of 08/04/2025, this hearing will be broadcast on the parliament's website, and the proof and official transcripts of proceedings will be published on the parliament's website.  I remind members of the media who may be present or listening on the web of the need to fairly and accurately report proceedings of the committee.  Before we call a witness, can I just get a resolution, senator Mulholland, that we accept submissions one hundred and eighteen and one hundred and nineteen Mhmm?  And authorizing for publication. 

Thank you.  All in favor?  Against, declare it carried.  Okay.  I now welcome doctor Kevin Bonham to give evidence today.
