I must comment on the noble Baroness’s remarks on education. The Speaker of your Lordships’ House has a wonderful outreach programme, which has meant that I have gone to lots of schools recently. However, the evidence, which is not mine—it goes much wider than that—is that if you tell young people simply not to do something or make it criminal, such as speeding, they tend to still do it. Indeed, it is sometimes much more exciting to do it. When you tell them why they should not do it, they start to take notice.
