Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL]

Assuming the Minister does so, and I dare say there will be a number of letters as a result of this Committee, it would be helpful to understand the likely use of Clauses 15 and 16 as opposed to Clause 7. Looking at them both, I see Clause 15 as the converse of Clause 7. For example, the LBRO can give a direction with the consent of the Secretary of State on certain specific matters. It may be that, under Clause 15, the Secretary of State wants to require the LBRO to do something. Can we get an explanation of which directions are specific and which are general? ““Specific”” is certainly intended to be left in, in any event. Clarity on that relationship would be useful.
