I thank the Member for his questions. It is good to have clarity on them.

At its core, this is a practical and proportionate step to strengthen animal welfare, improve public confidence and bring Northern Ireland into line with the rest of the United Kingdom.

On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. I hate to be the Chair of the Finance Committee, but, by my count, we are not quite quorate. I do not know whether that calls into question legally anything that we do now.
