I thank the Minister and her officials who provided briefing materials to us, as well as briefing time. We can have consensus on this issue. I accept it may need to be kept under review but the amendments were put forward for the right reasons. I thank the many organisations, professional bodies, accountancy firms and individual companies that got in touch with us and related their experiences in the context of the current legislation and the impact the proposed changes would have on them. Common sense has prevailed but, as the Minister says, it will be continually under review and we can address issues if they arise.
