Over and out





The day is ending and we are packing up our handkerchief, tying it to a stick and heading home.





Thanks for joining us for the first week we have blogged parliament LIVE from insider the building.





Five things to note in closing:





1. The federal government has approved Adani's plan for the Carmichael coal mine.



The Yakka skink which was partly to blame for holding up the approval for Adani





2. The PM Malcolm Turnbull is attempting to shrug off Labor's line of attack on his wealth and tax status.





3. Some Senators have given up on trying to teach people how their names are pronounced.
