I am very grateful to the Minister for the care he has taken in answering and explaining what the Government intend to do. I will be much reassured when I see all that in the Bill and not just in a statement in Hansard. I thank all those who have spoken, particularly those who put their names to the other amendments: the noble Lord, Lord Judd, who spoke with his customary passion, experience and humanity and the noble Baroness, Lady Massey, who chairs the All-Party Group on Children with such wisdom and breadth. I am interested that both of them emphasised the context in which we were discussing the amendment; namely, the treatment of children in the criminal justice system as a whole and in one particular part of it. At this stage, I am happy to withdraw the amendment, but with the promise that I shall want to return to the issue on Report.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
