Each and every time this nation has been stuck with an issue requiring legislative intervention, for the past 20 years, it has been this Parliament to take the society out of it. We had the Companies Bill stuck with the lawyers out there and the business. In one blow you, I and other members of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs supported by this Parliament delivered the companies’ new law. We now rank very well in terms of the ease of business. In legal practice and our families out there, we were stuck with the matrimonial property law for quite some time. As my senior in the legal profession, you remember in matters matrimonial property, we had a law of England which was legislated in 1882. It is until this 11th Parliament, in the good Committee you sit in supported by the Hon. Members here, put their feet down and we now have a new Matrimonial Property Act, a new Marriage Act. We are into the law of succession and we will have straightened up the family. We are looking at matters of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
