We have reached the last amendment, with 125 hours plus of deliberation. I have been present in the Chamber for the vast majority of those, that is, 123 hours. I have been very much impressed by the Minister's tenacity and commitment to continue this debate, which at times has been extremely frustrating. I suppose it is a reflection of how important this Chamber and our democracy are. We got through it and will finish Committee Stage today and will move on to Report Stage, which, hopefully, will not take 125 hours.
