First, let me take this opportunity to thank the Seconder and Senators who contributed to this Bill. I am delighted to see the kind of interest there is. Unfortunately, there seems to be some kind of tradition in this House that after a certain hour, Members become fairly few, but be that as it may, that is a discussion for another day. There are quite a number of issues raised here and there by various Members and I will try to summarise them by way of responding to various cardinal issues. One of them is the idea that there should be some kind of a coordination body or forum between counties on the basis that they may implement the Bill in good faith and then end up with a lot of duplication between counties and so on. It is a good idea. Of course, we do have county forums from the CoG"}
