Indeed. Regular viewers may ask, however, how it is that Deputy Wallace has Private Members' business once again on a Thursday evening. Is he a Deputy of remarkable industry? Does he have his own Department? As the Chair said, the reason for it is that he is a remarkably lucky man. What the hundreds of thousands of viewers at home may not realise is that Private Members' business is chosen through lottery on a Thursday night. We were here two or three weeks ago, dealing with one of Deputy Wallace's Private Members' Bills, and here we are again. He is obviously very lucky when it comes to lotteries.
