As a member of the committee, I apologise for the Minister having to stand outside for so long. I had no idea that was happening.

I welcome the Bill and thank the Minister. I read a great book by Mr. Neil Postman in which he discussed information and how our main problem now was how to store it. That is effectively what the committee is debating. The Bill tries to come to terms with the issue. I had a question, but I will leave it, as I had no idea the Minister had been standing outside for three quarters of an hour. Were I her, I would be raging.
