Members should have the debate this afternoon.
I will conclude by noting that the Government as a whole, including the Leader, should engage to some extent with the Opposition parties. The latter merely seek information and, as Opposition parties, do not seek necessarily to make the decisions because that is a matter for the Government. However, information should be provided to, and there should be engagement with, the Opposition parties. Moreover, there should be a little respect for the institutions of this House.
