I want to thank the Government for the course that they have decided to take. This is one of the small privileges left to the small burghs, who were rather perturbed when this Amendment was agreed to in another place. I know a good many people are anxiously waiting to hear the pronouncement of the Government in regard to this Amendment, and there will be great satisfaction to know that the Government have a little backbone which enables them to face up to the other House.
