I am grateful for the clarification. It does not affect greatly what I was going to say, but it was important for the record.
I would like to take away the Committee’s concerns, and to write to Members setting out how we see this working. The noble Baroness, Lady Hamwee, will appreciate this point: there has to be the overwhelming principle of reasonableness in the way the clauses work, and we need to set out how that would operate in this case. I am grateful for the support for the principle because it is important for the way this part of the Bill operates.
