by leave—In relation to the hour for a dinner break, I have raised this a number of times. I do not mind sitting long hours but it is just that you need a break, so I appreciate the government and the opposition agreeing to that. I think that we should be working longer hours rather than have taxpayers pay for another sitting week. If we can get through it there is a preference to sit longer hours rather than get everybody back here at taxpayers’ expense for another week. I think sitting longer hours does make sense.
