I do not have an enormous number of questions for Mr. French. I thank him for coming in and sympathise with him on the loss of his sister and with his nephews on the loss of their mother. It is a horrendous experience that does not bear thinking about. As a sister and mum myself, I commit, along with my colleagues, to do everything we can to reform the laws. I thank him for the work he has done to ensure something like this does not happen to another family in the future.
