It looks as though the hon. Gentleman, who wants to intervene, has been pressing that case strongly. I agree with him about that. I am not saying that we need only measures to make the register more accurate; I am saying that we should do both. It was said of the late, great Spiro Agnew—perhaps not so great—that he was a man who found it difficult both to walk down the sidewalk and chew gum. I think that we can do better.
