My Lords, I am most grateful to the Minister for that somewhat unexpected answer. This point did not come out at all clearly in the course of the discussions in the Moses Room, where a number of those with far more knowledge about charities than I have seemed to think that charities which thought they had a legacy would be able to search. I am puzzled by what the noble Lord said about their searching the one-stop shop, since presumably the one-stop shop does not actually have the list of names of those for whom the charities may be searching.
I will consider carefully what has been said. Those who have a particular interest in this matter may have a response to the Minister’s reply. Meanwhile, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
