Thank you, Deputy Chairman. This is a government amendment. First, I would like to put on record my thanks to the officials. Not only have we had a confetti of amendments to deal with on this Bill but, late last night, they were all changed into different groupings. That has meant a huge amount of work for them but they have done it with good cheer. It has been difficult not only for them but also for the rest of us. However, we shall press on as hard as we can. We have only 23 amendments to get through today so let us hope that we can do it. I am sure that people want to go home tonight for Christmas.
These government amendments are minor amendments. They are quite technical, which rules me out of the equation pretty early on, but they are
consistent with what is intended. I hope that they will find favour with the Opposition and other Peers. I beg to move.
