Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity. I congratulate the Committee for the good job that they have done in coming up with this Bill. At the same time, I also congratulate the Mover, my friend, Hon. Kutuny, for a well-moved Bill. From history, I am a beneficiary of blood donated by several people when I was very young.
