London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Borrie, to whom I have only one word in response—touché. I am grateful to my noble friend Lord Brooke for raising the wider perspective to the issue, which he was unable to do in Grand Committee. That has enabled a more thorough and, to a certain extent, a more focused debate. As I said, our debate in Grand Committee was a little scrappier and certainly not as well focused. The Minister has clearly directed our attention today to the issue. In the light of his explanations, especially given the significance of what is reported in Hansard in interpreting the Bill, that is enough to satisfy me on this occasion. With that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
