We currently have 50 justice and equality Private Members' Bills and 11 of them require a memorandum to the Government on the matter of a money message. I am very keen to engage in a positive way with the committee, notwithstanding the challenge I have. While I have 50 Private Members' Bills I have in excess of 50 Government Bills on programme for Government commitments on my desk. It is a total of 117 Bills. Many of those have been approved by this committee. I am keen to work with you, Chairman, and the members. You used the word "exasperation". It would trouble me if members of the committee were in a state of exasperation with the Government so I will see what I can do to assist.
