I have considered carefully what the noble Lord has said. I love the way in which he left the door wide open for himself to take a different view if, on having received some reassurance from our perspective, he did not necessarily agree with it.
I undertake to see what we can find to satisfy the noble Lord’s point. Whether or not it will be in the form of a draft, at this stage I am not prepared to commit, but I hear what the noble Lord says and I can understand why he might want some further measure of comfort and reassurance. I am grateful to him for raising this interesting debate.
