My Lords, I should know better than to try to table probing amendments seeking to understand what the legislation means. I thought that if I took out the words "or Scotland" I would draw opprobrium. That would have been another way of approaching it. I was not seeking support for either amendment, but if my noble friend would like me to table another dumb amendment—to which he might not want to put his name—at a later stage, to allow the Solway Firth to be debated further, I would be happy to help.
I am not sure that I am any wiser about the second amendment. The only words that the Minister used that answered my question were "open to challenge". My problem is that I do not know if this needs further discussion, but I can see that it will not happen this afternoon. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment 78 withdrawn.
Amendment 79 not moved.
