Hon SCOTT SIMPSON: Might I say at the outset that it's a great pleasure to be speaking and finishing my presentation on this second reading at the relatively respectable hour of 9.30 in the evening, as opposed to a couple of minutes to midnight last Friday night when the House was in urgency discussing this very bill. For those people listening at home or watching on television, or indeed in the Chamber who were not up at a couple of minutes before midnight on Friday night listening intently to the discussions taking place in this Chamber, the National Party will be opposing the second reading of this tinkering piece of resource management amendment.
