There are 248 amendments, which we will not get through today as we have to vacate the room by 1.15 p.m. We are scheduled to resume consideration at 2 p.m. tomorrow. We will sit as long as is required tomorrow in the hope that we will get this concluded. If we do not get this legislation through, in line with the request from the Minister and the Department, as there is a timeframe already set, we will have to sit again on Friday. That should be enough of a carrot for the members to ensure that we get through the business expeditiously. I would like us to get through the business without any unnecessary prevarication.
