No one wants a repetition of the events of last autumn. The measure before the House would cater for any difficulties before they arise. I am pleased that the Opposition, by and large, has chosen not to contest the measure because it is a provision which has the good of the citizen genuinely at heart. The passing of this measure will also have the effect of showing the Government's clear intent in the matter of these public events and that it is prepared to act in the people's interests.
