ANDREW FALLOON (National—Rangitata): Thank you very much, Madam Speaker, for the opportunity to speak tonight on the Electoral (Registration of Sentenced Prisoners) Amendment Bill (No 2). Now, usually at this stage of the debate we would be discussing and debating some of the issues that were raised at the select committee and some of the views that were expressed, but unfortunately, of course, we've been denied that opportunity in this Parliament because, of course, this bill isn't going to a select committee. We are debating the bill through all stages in urgency with no select committee and, I'm sure, a very truncated committee of the whole House stage as well. And that's a real shame, I think, because, as the Minister expressed earlier in the debate, there were quite a number of submitters on the original bill—I suppose which we call the "No. 1 bill" that was progressed through the House last week—but unfortunately no opportunity for scrutiny by a select committee on this particular bill.
