I will not delay the Minister. I was keen to contribute to this debate. I congratulate the Minister and the Department for getting this important legislation through. It is something that should have been done a considerable time ago. It is important that the work the Minister is doing in his Department is getting this through. I wish to take this opportunity to state on the record of the House that I appreciate the work the Minister and his officials have done in the Department of Health. This is a good day for the Department of Health and it is a good story for this Government. I appreciate that we are getting this timely legislation across the line.
