National Lottery Bill

Before the noble Lord, Lord Clement-Jones, decides what to do with his amendment, I should like to ask the Minister a question. He talked about distributing bodies having a public consultation about part of their funding. What happens if the consultation comes back and the spending proposed would in effect be additional? What happens when the public say that they would like more policemen in their area? An interesting aspect of the amendment is the reference to devolved expenditure; it contains a protection for additionality. Will there be protection for the principle of additionality in the consultation process?
