Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. Very briefly on this group, this Bill makes important changes to the Assembly's electoral franchise in terms of who can become an Assembly Member. Therefore, it would be desirable for Members to see that they can scrutinise such changes in the future. As the Member in charge of the Bill, I welcome the principle of post-legislative scrutiny and implementation of the law, but it's a matter for the Assembly to decide how this can be delivered through the various amendments that are included within this group—those introduced by David Melding, Darren Millar and the Counsel General. And therefore, I look forward to seeing the result of this vote, and what will be on the face of the Bill ultimately.
