Under Standing Order 68, I move that the question on amendment No. 22 be now put based on the fact that we have endlessly discussed the substance of this amendment and every other one since 24 April. We are celebrating the two-month anniversary of discussing this. We have spent something like 14 or 15 hours doing so. This legislation is being treated like no other legislation. Between 24 April and now, an additional 28 people died on our roads. These are horrendous tragedies. If they happened in any other area of our lives, there would be a major investigation and this House would come to a standstill. I move that amendment No. 22 be now put.
