Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Baroness. I echo my thanks to her for the time that she has spent and, more particularly, the time that her Bill team have spent, some of them on Saturday mornings, which is far beyond the call of duty. It is much appreciated. I also assure the noble Baroness that no one envisages doing these things; they suddenly find themselves forced to do it. It is a force majeure and we have to prepare for it before it happens. Having said that and in the light of what the noble Baroness said—understanding that she has taken on board that we are talking about more than just one or two a year when the shoe pinches—I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 125 withdrawn. Clause 48 agreed.
