00:00Today in question time I made comments that were unkind and hurtful. I knew it
00:05was wrong as soon as I made the comment. I apologised and I withdrew as soon as I
00:11said it. But it shouldn't have happened and I also want to apologise to all
00:16Australians who suffer from this disability. I regret saying it. It was
