Although I agree with the thrust of my hon. Friend's argument, would it not be better to accept the amendment that specifies the need for an Act of Parliament rather than accept the Government's position, under which they will not have an Act of Parliament or primary legislation? If that entailed a huge row between us and the EU over sovereignty, would it be a bad thing?
