However, on my own behalf and that of the Minister for Finance, I assure them the observations made in this House are always useful, constructive, positive and greatly help us to improve legislation that has already gone through the tumble dryer in the past 18 months or so. As a result, the legislation has been substantially improved in comparison to the Bill first proposed by the Government. We deeply appreciate the observations made in this and the other House that have improved the legislation.
