We have had many congratulatory statements, and rightly so. While we have focused on what is happening in the Chamber today, the public are asking when we are going to get on with the work. I propose that we take a motion that this House will sit tomorrow to debate one of a number of matters. We could take maiden speeches from those who wish to make maiden speeches. We have heard about the case of Ibrahim Halawa and the issues around Brexit and housing. We have former Ministers in the House who would have much to say about health issues. Now that all 60 Senators are on the payroll and are here and ready to work, we should get down to work. Let us get on with the new politics tomorrow rather than waiting. I see no reason why we should not do so.
