Before we commence, I know that housing is a very emotional issue on every side of the House. I ask everybody to stick to their time slots, make their points and try to avoid arguments that will not do anything to solve housing issues.

Hear, hear.

I will be fair to everybody on every side of the House. I usually get good co-operation from all those present. I do not anticipate any problems and certainly the Christmas spirit will be in the air as well.
