My Lords, I do not want to interrupt the noble Lord because he probably has a lot more to say, but ““convenience”” is an understatement. I think we are discussing something much deeper than the convenience of government; we are discussing the rights and wrongs of the position of this House relative to the other place when we have done our scrutiny job. And no one could accuse us of not doing our scrutiny job.
