Without appearing to be a pesky suburban solicitor, which is my background, I accept in good faith what the minister is saying, but I want to make sure that there is not some technical impediment that, despite the good faith of the minister, would prevent that undertaking from coming into force. It is not a question of the minister not acting in good faith, I understand that, but is the minister in a position to advise firmly and clearly that there will be eight sitting days? If that is the case, from my point of view, that hurdle has been removed.
