British Board of Film Classification (Accountability to Parliament and Appeals) Bill

Just to ensure that I am absolutely correct, does the hon. Gentleman agree that, as I mentioned in an earlier intervention, there is already an additional stage, as section 5(1) and (2) of the 1984 Act means that the Secretary of State can only decide to appoint the designated person if there is no objection from either House? Both Houses therefore have a veto, so there is full parliamentary involvement in that important decision.
