Madam Acting Deputy President, on a point of order: I know we give people quite a bit of latitude in this place to range freely, across many topics, when discussing a bill, but we are four minutes into this and all we have heard is a critique of controlled burns—which have nothing to do with this bill—and we have had a critique of the live-animal export trade. I am just trying to work out how either of those points are even the faintest bit relevant to the bill we are discussing.
