delete from 'after the launch' and insert 'recognises that to have set up a website to cope with one million hits per hour, which it received in the first two days of operation, would have been prohibitively expensive; congratulates the staff of the Public Record Office for restoring the website and making the beautiful Public Record Office in Kew a delight to visitors from all over the world; believes that their hard work and enthusiasm has created the huge interest in local history and genealogy which exists today; and encourages all honourable Members who have not yet visited the Public Record Office in Kew, to do so as soon as possible.'.
