Perhaps I may ask about the definition of third sector. Is it the case that there are three sectors: first, the statutory sector; secondly, the private sector, which is the most easily defined by talking about bodies and persons who make and distribute profits; and that the third sector is the rest—the voluntary and community sector? Are there more than three sectors? Or is the definition of the sectors which I have given in shorthand wrong in some way? It seems to me that, in considering the undertaking to support the voluntary and community sector, it is important to understand the boundaries of that sector and, of course, where the other 30 or 40 per cent goes to. I imagine that if we follow down the line of the New Opportunities Fund, the great majority of it will go to local authorities. Am I right in pursuing that definition?
