I am also opposed to the guillotine being introduced on this Bill. There are 33 amendments in front of us but only an hour to discuss them. There was a good debate at committee but it was there that the Minister introduced the highly controversial amendment which the rest of the Members of the House have not had an opportunity to debate. Very few Members will get to debate the introduction of the new restrictions in regard to blasphemy in just one hour. I am opposed to the guillotine. A longer debate is needed so that all Members have an opportunity to partake in the debate if they so wish.
