My Lords, I am not going to be caught this time. I thank the Minister for moving this enormous number of amendments. I wonder, in passing, whether agreeing 170 amendments in such a short time will entitle us to an entry in the Guinness book of records or, indeed, the House of Lords records. I am delighted to see these amendments, and congratulate the Minister on finding so many more instances than I did when I proposed a mere 45 amendments of the exact same kind. This change is very welcome and sensible, and one that we certainly strongly support—as does, I know, the Electoral Commission.
