I add some words to those of the Minister of State. If there were backhanded compliments from me, they were compliments, which is not always the case.

I hate rushed legislation, as we all do. This Bill clearly had to come through and it has done so, with the Minister of State explaining it very well. There is little doubt in my mind that we have two Chambers and we have the ability to get legislation through them. We must try to avoid rushed legislation in future but I congratulate the Minister of State and his officials for getting this Bill through as efficiently as he did.
