Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I said at the time I moved this Motion, this is a very momentous occasion. We have taken very bold steps towards the road of reform in this country. As I said, I wish to thank the Members of the Standing Orders Committee and the Sub-committee of the Ninth Parliament because they did most of the work that, in fact, we completed. So, we do come to a stage in history when this House can say that we have set the pace and we look forward to the Executive arm of the Government doing the same ...

Hon. Members, I am told that the Clerks are not ready yet with the Anti-Counterfeit Bill. Obviously, they are not ready because I do not even have a copy of the Bill.

THE ANTI-COUNTERFEIT BILL I think we can move forward now. We are now ready to move forward.

It is all right. Hon. Members will look at them and decide. Just move your amendments, Mr. Minister.

Your amendments to Clause 2 stand withdrawn, and I will allow the Minister to move the Clause because you say that your recommendations are incorporated in his amendments.

We are on Clause 2; when we reach the other ones, you can withdraw your amendments, but for now let us allow the Minister to move his.

I just want to give you an opportunity, if you have looked at them, to withdraw all of them to simplify the work ahead.

Those amendments are now withdrawn; so, we should proceed with only the amendments proposed by the Minister.
