A couple of hon. Members have said that the new clause would unpick the locks, but they have so far failed to say in what way—I hope that the hon.

Does he also agree that if Members are to claim that, they should do more than simply asserting it to be true? They should try to provide some sort of evidence and reason why they think it is true.
