Legislative Reform

The Minister is always immensely kind to me. I am most grateful to him. As he will know, insolvency notices provide a sizeable part of the income of many of our local newspapers—he will see the irony in the fact that those newspapers are the subject of the topical debate to follow. Indeed, the Government have expressed considerable concern about the solvency of local press. Has the Minister taken that into account? I hope to speak in the topical debate, but I would like to hear his answer to that question.
