I thank everybody for their co-operation. This has probably been the longest debate on a Bill I have ever been involved in other than the Employment (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act a number of years ago, which took a while. As I said, I believe the Bill is better today than it was when it arrived in this House but it still has some major flaws because of its omissions. Having said that, I thank the Minister of State for her engagement. She has always been respectful of our ambitions. I hope we never find ourselves in a position of having to deal with the omissions.
