I move amendment No. 5:
In page 13, line 26, to delete "(including knowledge of humankind, culture and society)".
I cannot recall the number of times I have been told from the ministerial chair that lists are anathema. They are because they are not exhaustive. They actually confine rather than expand legislation. For that reason, I propose to delete "including knowledge of humankind, culture and society". What is "knowledge of humankind" anyway? It is either such a vast idea or such a daft idea that I am rendered speechless.
