We all know there is a problem with this issue but we all want to solve it. It would be hugely disappointing if this Bill was frozen again or not dealt with because of a money message. As the Chair said, the costs are not going to be significant. If we are going to tackle the issue, the costs are going to be incurred anyway. One of the best things about this committee is that we have not played party politics and it would be a real shame if we ended up doing so. I hope we do not.
