Employment Bill [HL]

And me. It will not be 24 or 26 February, I promise you that. By that day—it is an excellent idea—I commit to issuing a letter setting out the background of where we have got to; I hope that will have no problem being subject to any 30-year rule. It will also deal with this being an ACAS code, not a government code. ACAS is, thank heavens, independent and the code’s further amendment will be ACAS’s affair. I am sure that the noble Lord, Lord Henley, knew that when he suggested we amend it. However, we will produce a letter of explanation of where we have got to and why, and how we can deal with this during the passage of the Bill. I further undertake to ensure that a copy is personally delivered to the noble Lord as he catches his 6.25 am from Carlisle.
