I am not seeking to undermine the right hon. Gentleman’s cases and I am interested in what he is saying, but will he accept that the drafting of amendment 10 simply does not work? Were it placed where he wants it placed, schedule 1 would read:
“If an application for authorisation is granted…the Secretary of State must make regulations”.
It does not work. It is grossly defective in drafting terms. Whatever he does, I hope he does not press the amendment to a Division, although he may, of course,
make sound arguments for why something similar should be in the Bill, which I hope can be addressed at a later stage.
