I welcome the opportunity to speak on this Bill and I thank the Minister of State for her speech. I especially thank the Library and Research Service that serves us well and that produced the abstract for us and educated us. The Bill itself is short. The Schedules attached to it are somewhat longer. The context of this Bill is important and previous speakers referred to it. We are talking about a period between January 1821 and January 1861. I was going to say this Bill is going to get rid of spent or obsolete secondary instruments. The correct word escapes me. It will abandon or get rid of them.
