I thank the Minister for coming into the House. There are many amendments to get through but, ultimately, I agree with my colleague and the Minister that we have to get on with it. Many employees are waiting for this to happen. They do not know whether to start their own private pension scheme or whether to wait for the auto-enrolment scheme. People are watching this debate and hoping it will pass through this House speedily. We have waited too long for it to happen. I hope we do not see any delays today. I look forward to the Committee Stage debate today.
