I, too, thank the Minister for the amount of time she dedicated to dealing with the Bill in this House, which highlights the relevance of the House. I thank the Leader for agreeing not to guillotine the debate this week on the Social Welfare and Pensions Bill, which was very productive. We all agree that painful decisions have had to be taken. It gives us no pleasure to do that but we do it in the interests of the country.
