Some Senators have requested extra time for this debate. That is a matter for the House, if it is willing to amend Standing Orders, but the Minister of State has kindly said she will work through from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. and I hope the officials will do the same if the House agrees. We are dealing with a Bill at 12 p.m. which hopefully will provide a sos if it does not last an hour. I propose that we use the sos, from 1 to 2 p.m., to finish Committee Stage.
