Confident Consumers

I apologise, Mr. Deputy Speaker. That is the second time that I have been pulled up today. I explained earlier that I was a bit ring rusty but that I hoped to have a bit more oil in my body by the end of the debate. I am nearly there, and I hope that you do not have to call me to order again—but you have to admit, it is good stuff. We have livened up what could have been a very dry debate and I hope that consumer magazines and newspapers will join the discussion. In that way, they will give information about the services that the Government are providing and the investment that we are putting in. I hope, Mr. Deputy Speaker, that you do not think that I was using being pulled up as a tactic in the debate. It is not the first time in my life that I have been asked to watch my language.
