NICOLA WILLIS (National): I rise to oppose a shortened report back for this piece of legislation, and in doing so, I want to remind members of this House about how serious a piece of legislation this is and how, in fact, that warrants more thorough scrutiny than normal pieces of legislation. Yet we are here tonight being told to do the opposite. Here we have the Government asking for an extension of the most extraordinary powers a Government has granted to itself possibly in decades, and the Government, in asking for an extension of those powers through to May 2023, has said that it does not wish for that to be thoroughly scrutinised through a normal-length select committee process. On this side of the House, we raise our objection to that because we think it is more important than ever that there be appropriate democratic scrutiny of the measures contained in this bill.
