I have a question before the noble Lord responds to the debate. The Minister mentioned that the international Civil Service has been making representations. One of them happens to be one of my graduates, which is why I am familiar with the case. The Minister has indicated sympathy and said that there will be a study of the merits of the case and whether it should be extended; I am very grateful for that. What will happen if the Government find that there is merit in the case? The timescale means that it will not be in the Bill; what will the Government do?
