I thank my noble friend for that fairly encouraging answer. The point about the three days’ duration—perhaps I did not spell this out—is that you can get to Bangkok and back in that time with a cheap flight; it is proving to be not sufficient. Had I had more time, I could have given the Committee the facts and figures that ECPAT and other organisations have about sex offenders who are continuing to pursue their horrible activities in Thailand and other countries while they are on the sex offenders’ register. We need to address the issue one way or the other. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
