I would like to thank Members for going through that brief discussion of the purpose of this overall amendment: to at least give the Assembly some way of getting its requests listened to. It will now become a matter of record and in future, if requests are made, it will be taken as a matter of priority. As the Minister has pointed out, given the importance that we attach to ministerial government, we will still have people who listen very carefully and seriously to any requests we make. So I will be supporting the amendment.
