Text

I thank the Member for giving way. The Member reflected on correcting the record about the Exceptional Further Consideration Stage. In my time here, which dates back to 1998, the Exceptional Further Consideration Stage has happened once, as I recall. I stand to be corrected, but I recall that it has happened once. It is not a standard procedure, and the key to that is the word "Exceptional".
