European Union (Amendment) Bill

My Lords, I am extremely grateful to the noble Baroness, and I apologise for interrupting those very detailed comments. If, as she appears to be arguing, we are going to, in effect, deny the other place the opportunity to look at this issue again, we need to be absolutely clear about what she is proposing. The proposal makes an exception. It says that where an earlier opt-in decision is necessary, those rules will not apply. In fact, it will be in the Government’s gift to say, ““I am sorry, we have overridden that particular opt-in opportunity””. Does that fit in with the detail of the timetable that she is talking about?
