I thank the Minister for that information. I did not know about the case in court. I hope that a decision will be taken before the Bill leaves this place so that if the decision does not deal with the matter in the way that we consider appropriate, there would still be a chance to do something about it. I shall withdraw the amendment, but I should tell the Minister that I experienced this problem when I bought an expensive handbag in a smart, well-known shop on Fifth Avenue, New York. When I got home, it was faulty but the store here would not do anything about it, nor would the company that issued the credit card with which I paid for the bag. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
