The noble Baroness will recognise that the targets and the compliance of the devolved Administrations will have been the product of considerable consultation with the Secretary of State before they are arrived at. I am not an expert in local government but in a sense her parallel is exact. In certain areas the devolved Administrations will have their responsibilities and strategies on how to hit certain targets, and they will have reached the decision on their contribution with the Secretary of State. If there were a deficiency, the United Kingdom would be responsible for it.
