I presume the Minister will not tell Members in advance. Obviously, everyone will be waiting with bated breath for that decision. Regardless of the decision the Government will take, I hope it takes into account everything that has been said on the subject, as well as the impact it will have on the sawmilling industry etc. This House is at times rightfully criticised because of an absence of good debate on subjects but on this issue, there has been excellent debate. The question now is whether, after an excellent debate on the subject, it will be listened to because otherwise it was pointless.
