Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

I hope that I will be permitted to complete my remarks after those two very useful interventions by the Minister and the noble Lord, Lord Walton of Detchant. I only have one more major point. The Minister suggests that to do what I propose would mean that we had a super-regulator. I do not expect that this sort of thing could be done by Ofqual right at the beginning. Ofsted started off as a fairly small, limited-powers organisation and its responsibilities have grown. I envisage a day when Ofqual will be asked by whichever Government are in power at the time to collect that sort of information, on which policy can then be based. I hardly think that I need to answer the question that the noble Baroness posed about what would regulate Ofqual; we could just go on and ask what would regulate it as well. However, I welcomed her suggestion that something might be added to go some way towards addressing my concerns at Third Reading, and I look forward to a conversation with her about that. I beg leave to withdraw my amendment. Amendment 156 withdrawn. Amendment 157 not moved. Amendment 158 Moved by
