Public Bodies Bill [HL]

I am sorry to respond, because this is Report and it is the last thing I want to do, but it seems to me that the point is that it says, ““make an order””, it does not mean to say that it is an order in anything like the form that is thought of so far. The consultation might well open up new possibilities altogether. The Minister wants to make an order, he wants to proceed, he may do it this way or he may do something else in the way of further consultation and then go ahead with an order different in substance from what he had proposed in the original consultation. That is the reason for it.
