They say there are two things one should never watch being made, namely, sausages and legislation. My apologies to the vegetarians. I say that because what we are witnessing is a good example of probably how not to make legislation.

I say that with the greatest respect to everybody involved in the process. We are scrambling around with two different sets of groupings of amendments. I appreciate the Minister of State has been dropped in to fill out bits of this but he is scrambling to cope with that. That is not a criticism; it is just a fact.
