For once, the Minister and I agreed more than everyone else did, which is interesting. I appreciate a lot of what he said, as he has clearly understood the problem. I have been approached about the amendment by many Peers from all parties who said that they would like some safety cameras to be more visible. There is concern about it; one has only to look at Second Reading and hear various instances of speed cameras based, for example, in various places in Oxfordshire and on the A13 that cause offence because they are clearly not seen well and people do not know that they are there.
I thank the Minister and shall reflect on what he said, because I think that we will come back to the matter on Report in some way or another. We have taken 25 minutes or so on this amendment and have a long way to go; at this rate, we will need two or three more days in Committee. With that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
