I will return to bankruptcy. I am concerned that people who have the money and the capacity can go across the Border or over the sea and have themselves discharged within a 12-month period. It is not fair to people who do not have the capacity. Given that more liberal bankruptcy laws are pushing creditors towards making arrangements, why not take that step and level the playing field in this country?
