The Bill specifically does not include a date, but it enables the Prime Minister to go with a date that she has in effect inserted in the �[�]�, so it is within her control.
I will draw my remarks to a conclusion by saying that I am not sure whether the hon. Member for Camborne and Redruth�he is not here, so I would not want to cast aspersions�intended the amendment as a means perhaps of ending up with no deal. We know that seeking an extension until 30 June would not be well received by the EU, because it does not enable anything to happen in the time that is left. I hope that that was not his intention, but if this amendment is pushed to a vote today, I and the Liberal Democrats will oppose it on the basis that it would preclude a people�s vote. It is very clear around the country now that there is a very strong appetite for such a vote to take place.
