To clarify, I was addressing amendment No. 112. Senator Warfield's amendment was ruled out of order, which was nothing to do with either me or my officials. It is the Bills Office that ruled it out of order. In my reply, I was addressing amendment No. 112. Everything I do is in good faith. We want to be certain that any legislation would have its intended effect, so we are taking the time to examine this issue. I thank Senator Higgins for raising it. It is something that I agree is of the utmost importance.
