I am following my hon. Friend's analysis. Is he not leading us in the direction that many of us in the House are already taking? We have great sympathy with the Bill, but a radical amendment of the 1971 Act might simply not be possible within the confines of a private Member's Bill. Should Government time be given to examine the issue, perhaps outside the limited ambit of a private Member's Bill?
